Sterbende Dörfer, Verödung und Niedergang: In Wissenschaft und Medien stehen ländliche Räume häufig für Orte des Mangels und der Benachteiligung. Zugleich bringen utopisch anmutende Vorstellungen und Bilder des Lebens auf dem Land so viel Glanz mit sich, dass sie in Werbung und Kultur sowie in den Wünschen und Orientierungen vieler Menschen Anklang finden. Die Beiträger*innen gehen aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven diesem utopischen Glanz nach. Sie fragen, inwiefern »Utopien des Ländlichen« ein Zugang sein können, um Vorstellungen eines gelingenden gesellschaftlichen Zusammenlebens zu entwickeln und zu erproben - und welche konkreten Forderungen für die Regionalentwicklung und -politik damit verbunden sind.
From Sir John Franklin's doomed 1845 search for the Northwest Passage to early twentieth-century sprints to the South Pole, polar expeditions produced an extravagant archive of documents that are as varied as they are engaging. As the polar ice sheets melt, fragments of this archive are newly emergent. In The News at the Ends of the Earth Hester Blum examines the rich, offbeat collection of printed ephemera created by polar explorers. Ranging from ship newspapers and messages left in bottles to menus and playbills, polar writing reveals the seamen wrestling with questions of time, space, community, and the environment. Whether chronicling weather patterns or satirically reporting on penguin mischief, this writing provided expedition members with a set of practices to help them survive the perpetual darkness and harshness of polar winters. The extreme climates these explorers experienced is continuous with climate change today. Polar exploration writing, Blum contends, offers strategies for confronting and reckoning with the extreme environment of the present.
