Abstract

We move from a provocative analogy: that transdisciplinary sustainability researchers are to academia what queer people are to a heteronormative and sex/gender binary world. Both may experience disorientation and need to learn how to transgress established norms. Queer people and scholars have extensively dealt with (dis)orientation and celebrated transgression. We suggest that queer theory can help transdisciplinary sustainability researchers to raise questions that intensify the transgressive orientations of their work when contributing to just and equitable sustainability transformations.

论定向:通过酷儿理论强化跨学科可持续性研究的越界取向

我们从一个挑衅性的类比转向：跨学科的可持续发展研究人员对学术界的意义，就像酷儿对非规范和性别/性别二元世界的意义一样。两者都可能会迷失方向，需要学习如何违反既定规范。酷儿们和学者们广泛地讨论（dis）取向和庆祝越轨行为。我们认为，酷儿理论可以帮助跨学科的可持续发展研究人员在为公正和公平的可持续发展转型做出贡献时提出问题，加剧他们工作的越轨倾向。

期刊介绍： GAIA is a peer-reviewed inter- and transdisciplinary journal for scientists and other interested parties concerned with the causes and analyses of environmental and sustainability problems and their solutions. Environmental problems cannot be solved by one academic discipline. The complex natures of these problems require cooperation across disciplinary boundaries. Since 1991, GAIA has offered a well-balanced and practice-oriented forum for transdisciplinary research. GAIA offers first-hand information on state of the art environmental research and on current solutions to environmental problems. Well-known editors, advisors, and authors work to ensure the high quality of the contributions found in GAIA and a unique transdisciplinary dialogue – in a comprehensible style.
