Eclipsed Horizons: The Lingering Shadows of the Bhopal Disaster
Manage episode 419873364 series 3357681
Immerse yourself in the shadowy world of environmental injustice and the terrifying reality of "slow violence". Together with Master's student in Environmental Psychology, Elena Jordan, we explore how overlooked forms of harm, such as those caused by environmental change, gradually unfold over time and escape immediate notice. Elena sheds light on the Bhopal disaster and illustrates how corporations can evade responsibility in the midst of long-term suffering. With a critical look at Rob Nixon's concept of slow violence and a compelling narrative of the events surrounding the Bhopal Disaster, this interview challenges us to rethink the impact of slow violence because "even though we may not be able to see it right now, it is happening.".
