Étudier les infrastructures pour ouvrir les boîtes noires politiques. Entretien avec Timothy Mitchell
No full textCet entretien avec l’historien et spécialiste de sciences politiques Timothy Mitchell, mené par le philosophe Pierre Charbonnier et l’historien Julien Vincent, revient sur les enjeux d’une œuvre intellectuelle où les rapports entre politique et infrastructures sont omniprésents. L’interlocuteur revient sur le contexte dans lequel il a d’abord élaboré son cadre théorique, entre études postcoloniales et Science and Technology Studies (STS). Il discute ensuite la portée de ses travaux sur les concepts de modernité, d’État, de technologie, d’énergie fossile. Enfin, il développe les implications politiques de ses travaux, notamment à partir d’une réflexion sur l’élection de Donald Trump à la présidence américaine.This interview with leading historian and political scientist Timothy Mitchell, by Julien Vincent (historian) and Pierre Charbonnier (philosopher) introduces to a work where the relationship between politics and infrastructures is central. Mitchell first describes the intellectual context in which he developed his conceptual framework, incorporating both postcolonial studies and Science and Technology Studies. He then discusses his work in relation to concepts of modernity, State, technology, and fossil fuels. The interview finally addresses the political implications of his work, particularly after the election of Donald Trump as US president
Ep. #057 - Timothy Mitchell
No full textThis recording and transcript form part of a collection of podcasts conducted by the Cultures of Energy at Rice University. Cultures of Energy brings writers, artists and scholars together to talk, think and feel their way into the Anthropocene. We cover serious issues like climate change, species extinction and energy transition. But we also try to confront seemingly huge and insurmountable problems with insight, creativity and laughter.Cymene and Dominic take a break from the political chaos and happily nostalgize the 1970s. Then (13:57) to help us better understand what kind of carbon autocracy democracy we’re living in these days, we welcome to podcast political theorist, historian and zen master of all things carbon, Timothy Mitchell from Columbia University. Tim explains that autocracy and populism have always been part of carbon politics but that what really strikes him about our current situation is how visible those politics are becoming. He notes that while the contemporary threat of illiberalism is real, liberalism itself has not done nearly enough to save the planet from catastrophic climate change. We talk pipelines and the material and political relations they make visible, what the term “energy” elides, and we hear about how his magnificent Carbon Democracy project (Verso, 2013) originated. Tim explains why the 1970s were such a pivotal moment in both energy and politics, how growth is a petroknowledge, and why petronostalgia seems all the rage these days. We then turn toward his current work on contemporary capitalism and talk about how it is designed to make us pay taxes on the future through the capitalization of future value. And, a special shoutout to the band Overcoats whose single Hold Me Close is our outro music on this episode. Catch them at SXSW next month
Complete data and statistical code for: Seeding roadsides is necessary but not sufficient for restoring native floral communities
No full textThe data files contain plant observations for 63 roadside sites observed during the time period of May-Aug of 2021. The Program R code here will read in and summarize those data, complete analyses needed to duplicate the results of the manuscript, and create visualizations used in publication. See readme file for more information.These data were collected in support of a Minnesota Department of Transportation funded study evaluating roadside plantings. The goal of our study was understand how roadside pollinator forage is affected by planting pollinator-friendly seed mixes in roadsides in Minnesota, USA. We used a field study of mixed-age roadside plantings to assess this flower diversity in roadsides planted with status quo non-native seed mixes to those planted with pollinator friendly, native seed mixes. We found that while these native seed mixes did increase the abundance of native flowers, the roadsides' flower communities of native and non-native seedmixes converged through time to grass dominated and unplanted colonizing species. This repository contains the complete datasets as a comma-separated-value files and Program R code necessary to replicate the data prep, exploration, analysis, and visualizations presented in the manuscript.Minnesota Department of TransportationNational Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program under Grant No. CON-75851, project 00074041Mitchell, Timothy S; Verhoeven, Michael R; Darst, Ashley L; Patterson, Cate; Snell-Rood, Emilie C.

[David Mitchell and Descendants]
No full textCopy of "David Mitchell and Descendants" originally written by Thomas Mitchell, Jr. The manuscript starts with David Mitchell, possibly a Revolutionary soldier, and details what is known about his life and those of his descendants. The record ends with the marriage of his widow, Sarah Patterson Mitchell Frear, to Abraham Frear. It states that she was the mother and grandmother of many Frears and Mitchells in the family. After the record, there is a note about the original manuscript's author; it was then copied by Ora Osterhout
