Le modèle topologique des sociétés amazoniennes by Klaus Hamberger

“…In order to sketch out the logic underlying this model, three aspects of the centre of this social space are taken into account: as the residence of unmarried men, as a place to receive non-humans, and as a liminal area during initiation.

“Sustainable security” through river enlargements: A political ecology of nature-based solutions and flood control in the Rhone Valley, Switzerland by Alexis Metzger, René Véron

“…The largest ongoing river training project in Switzerland, the so-called Third Correction of the Rhone in the Valais, builds on nature-based solutions (river enlargements and renaturation) while official documents and discourses also refer to an ill-defined notion of “sustainable security” and the goal of controlling floods.

Waste and the neoliberal work of blame: Reading politics from Cape Town’s informal landscapes by Angela D. Storey

Drawing from public service campaigns and ethnographic research, this article examines neoliberal ideologies as discourses of blame that erase the political context for marginalized lives, and argues for the need to understand ideologies of governance by setting them against the broad politics of everyday life.…”

Drawing from recognizable romances and tales of detection (early English, American and Victorian Gothic), but also from classic writers such as Hawthorne and Conrad, not to mention Chandler and the film adaptation of The Big Sleep, Coover takes us into an urban nightmare in its horizontal labyrinthine dimension and its vertical and spectral depths. …”
