Knowledge production practices stabilise dynamic environments into governable objects. Environmental management schemes materialise specific ecologies in particular places and create value for certain actors. Neoliberal governance mechanisms reproduce their own ideological foundations. This paper offers a conceptual vocabulary to articulate the different performances and performative processes that drive these makings. Drawn together under the framework of environmental performativity, we show how objects, environments, and regimes all get made as natures are governed. Together, these terms disambiguate the diverging ways the concept of performativity gets used in the literature. They reveal how material, semiotic, ideological, and calculative forces exert their influence at different points in the design and delivery of environmental governance interventions. In describing these terms, we want to highlight the unique influence that human activities have in shaping the world without denying the agency of nonhuman actors and materialities. By drawing attention to the fact that alternative performances have the power to yield more just and sustainable environmental futures, we conclude the paper on a more optimistic note. We use the concept of reflexive performativity to discuss these political opportunities.","PeriodicalId":521390,"journal":{"name":"Progress in environmental geography","volume":"4 1","pages":"69-91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13131280/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147826323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, scant literature focuses on the ontological implications for communication within environmental decision-making, where Habermas' communicative action theory, with its norms of privileging argumentation, formality, expertise, institutional authority, rationality, and language, continues to shape spaces of public participation since the communicative turn in the 1990s. Growing calls for participatory decision-making, as well as the mounting failures of scientific management approaches espoused by conventional natural resource management, have fuelled the rise of co-management since the 1980s. The emerging emphasis in co-management approaches on community collaboration and meaningful communication was strengthened with the emergence of adaptive co-management and adaptive governance in the early 2000s. Yet, the ontological turn unveils communicative tensions which continue to persist, rooted in ontological difference and onto-epistemic violence. Rethinking communication under the ontological turn in co-management with Indigenous communities, this paper reviews the literature and further proposes the idea of ethical equivocation as a communicative tool and starting point toward learning to talk across worlds.","PeriodicalId":521390,"journal":{"name":"Progress in environmental geography","volume":"3 3","pages":"250-270"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13131279/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147826290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
