From vanishing coastlines in the Carolinas to the toxic legacies of coal ash, and from reclamations of Indigenous histories in Louisiana to Black radical environmentalism in the Tidewater, meet the Human/Nature issue of Southern Cultures. As guest editor Andy Horowitz writes, this issue ""advocates for a humane vision of how people live in and with the world around them--a view of the environment as, at once, a material landscape that crunches under foot and burns on the skin, and an intellectual terrain, where ideas about place inform people's views of the world. From vanishing coastlines in the Carolinas to the toxic legacies of coal ash, and from reclamations of Indigenous histories in Louisiana to Black radical environmentalism in the Tidewater, meet the Human/Nature issue of Southern Cultures.

Paperback. Condition: New. Winner of the Bancroft PrizeAn award-winning investigation into the social and political aftermath of Hurricane Katrina."The main thrust of Horowitz's account is to make us understand Katrina-the civic calamity, not the storm itself-as a consequence of decades of bad decisions by humans, not an unanticipated caprice of nature."-Nicholas Lemann, New YorkerHurricane Katrina made landfall in New Orleans on August 29, 2005, but the decisions that caused the disaster can be traced back nearly a century. After the city weathered a major hurricane in 1915, its Sewerage and Water Board believed that developers could safely build housing near the Mississippi, on lowlands that relied on significant government subsidies to stay dry. When the flawed levee system failed, these were the neighborhoods that were devastated.The flood line tells one important story about Katrina, but it is not the only story that matters. Andy Horowitz investigates the response to the flood, when policymakers made it easier for white New Orleanians to return home than for African Americans. He explores how the profits and liabilities created by Louisiana's oil industry have been distributed unevenly, prompting dreams of abundance and a catastrophic land loss crisis that continues today."Masterful.Disasters have the power to reveal who we are, what we value, what we're willing-and unwilling-to protect."-New York Review of Books"If you want to read only one book to better understand why people in positions of power in government and industry do so little to address climate change, even with wildfires burning and ice caps melting and extinctions becoming a daily occurrence, this is the one."-Los Angeles Review of Books.…

Stern, Los Angeles Review of Books"Horowitz rightly and trenchantly offers Katrina as an encapsulation of the big global challenges with which capitalism, racism, socio-economic inequality and global warming confront us all."-Peter Coates, Times Literary SupplementHurricane Katrina made landfall in New Orleans on August 29, 2005, but the decisions that caused the disaster can be traced back almost a full century. After the city weathered a major hurricane in 1915, its Sewerage and Water Board believed that developers could safely build housing away from the high ground near the Mississippi, on lowlands that relied on significant government subsidies to stay dry. When the flawed levee system failed, these were the neighborhoods that were devastated.The flood line tells one important story about Katrina, but it is not the only story that matters. Andy Horowitz investigates the response to the flood, when policymakers made it easier for white New Orleanians to return home than for Blacks. And he explores how the profits and liabilities created by Louisiana's oil industry have been distributed unevenly, prompting dreams of abundance-and a catastrophic land loss crisis that continues today. The Katrina disaster was not a weather event of summer 2005. It was a disaster a century in the making, a product of lessons learned from previous floods, corporate and government decision making, and the political economy of the United States at large. New Orleanss history is Americas history, and Katrina represents Americas possible future. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
