Chercheuse en sociologie (CNRS / CEMS / Paris), Laura Centemeri, co-animatrice du projet de recherche SYMBIOS, a écrit le premier ouvrage de sociologie dédié à la permaculture, en langue française. Intitulé "La permaculture ou l'art de réhabiter", il a été publié par les éditions Quae dans la collection "sciences en questions" en 2019. Pourquoi étudier la permaculture dans une perspective sociologique ? Tout d'abord, parce que la permaculture constitue un mouvement social qui a connu une r..

Ecologia politica e disastri
Gli intrecci tra ecologia politica e ricerca sui disastri confermano tutto l’interesse di uscire dall’opposizione tra, da un lato, approcci materialisti-realisti e, dall’altro, approcci post-strutturalisti-costruttivisti dei disastri per privilegiare, invece, prospettive e metodologie che tengano insieme un’analisi storico-processuale delle strutture con un’attenzione alle situazioni di esperienza, ai processi di attribuzione di senso e alle ecologie concrete in cui questi processi si svolgono. L’attenzione alle situazioni di esperienza invita a tenere conto dei fenomeni emergenti e delle potenzialità inattese di «biforcazione». L’attenzione alle strutture, invece, invita a collocare le situazioni locali e la loro irriducibilità in una temporalità di lungo periodo e in una geografia multiscalare intessuta di interdipendenze sistemiche (tecnologiche, ecologiche, economiche).
L’analisi dei processi di iscrizione territoriale delle politiche di gestione dei disastri e l’attenzione ai loro intrecci con i dispositivi e gli strumenti dell’economia capitalistica neoliberale costituiscono un punto di partenza promettente per cogliere l’eventuale emergenza, nelle crepe aperte dal disastro, di forme di resistenza o «frizioni» capaci di rallentare, se non bloccare, la macchina accelerazionista dello sviluppo insostenibile. Da semplici opposizioni, queste frizioni possono evolvere in processi di trasformazione che cercano di aprire sentieri di sviluppo socialmente ed ecologicamente sostenibile. A questo fine, è però necessario che i soggetti che si fanno portatori di queste istanze riescano a intercettare e orientare i «processi di riparazione» che accompagnano il «recupero» (o recovery), operando perché convergano verso obiettivi condivisi di cambiament
Introduction. Recovery, resilience and repairing: for a non-reductionist approach to the complexity of post-disaster situations
Burgess, J. Peter, Laura Centemeri & Sezin Topçu (2021) ’Introduction: Recovery, resilience and repairing: for a non-reductionist approach to the complexity of post-disaster situations’, in Burgess, J. Peter, Centemeri, Laura & Topçu (Drs.) Repairing Environments: A Critical Perspective on Recovery After Disaster, London: Routledge.International audienceThe introduction reviews the most relevant existing approaches to the study of recovery after disaster. It introduces a framework that is based on the analysis of repair processes and dispositifs, which is grounded in the assumption that any disaster situation is marked by the uncertainty of its 'what-ness'. This 'what-ness' depends on the diversity of actors experiencing its consequences and their involvement in a variety of processes of acknowledging, evaluating and managing these consequences at different scales. From this perspective, researching processes of recovery consists of following how the disaster and its consequences are made the object of a variety of struggles around the meaning of what happened and how it affected the given order of things and the possible future. The chapter illustrates how this approach overcomes some of the limitations of a recovery analysis framework that is based on the notion of resilience, pointing to the need to explore the multiple meanings of repairing environments in order to explain how communities recover after disaster. The chapter also highlights three different meanings of repairing in the field of recovery: repairing as redress, repairing as technical fixing and repairing as the everyday maintenance of one's own world in material, multispecies, experiential and emotional terms

Conclusion: Disaster recovery and the repairing perspective: between theory and practice
Burgess, J. Peter, Laura Centemeri & Sezin Topçu (2022) ’Conclusion: Disaster recovery and the repairing perspective—between theory and practice’, in Burgess, J. Peter, Centemeri, Laura & Topçu (Drs.) Repairing Environments: A Critical Perspective on Recovery After Disaster, London: Routledge: 222-232.International audienceThe chapter clarifies how the approach to the study of post-disaster situations based on the exploration of multiple and diverse repairing processes is propitious to a cross-fertilization between disaster studies and current theoretical debates in social sciences. This dialogue is essential, on the one hand, to allow a better understanding of disasters as expression of multiple systemic crises, including climate change, financial instabilities and the crisis of democratic legitimacy. On the other hand, these debates can feed the ‘sociological imagination’ of the field of disaster studies and contribute to developing the inclusive potential of policies aimed at supporting collective capacities of prevention, preparedness and response to disasters. In return, the dialogue between disaster studies and the theoretical perspectives currently developed in social sciences can help to clarify and test the operability of approaches otherwise condemned to remain just a paper exercise. In particular, the authors discuss the articulation of the reparative perspective with the systemic perspective that focuses on the interconnectedness of disasters, economic interests, globalization, financialization and the ongoing dynamics of colonialism. In the final section, building on the debate about how to transform urban planning to meet climate change challenges, the authors discuss the perspective of design activism against ‘defuturing’ as a way to renew the understanding of recovery
