摘要

摘要:本文要求我们将太平洋地区的核殖民主义重新定义为一种定居者殖民主义,认为通过核试验,美国将旧的定居者殖民主义的财产和占有原则应用于以前无人认领的海洋空间。通过对应用渔业实验室档案的分析,我展示了殖民法律理论如何提供了一个框架,在这个框架内,美国核复合体可以将自己定义为适当拥有海洋,它通过核试验进行了“生产性利用”,辐射作为定居者殖民的假体,即使在定居者本身没有的情况下,也继续强加殖民地土地关系。同时,我展示了太平洋本身是如何塑造了美国核主义的出现,因为它令人惊讶的弹性生态允许核复合体继续认为其破坏性活动与生命的持续生存是相容的。这篇文章最后分析了马绍尔群岛学生协会2019年的活动“我的鱼是你的鱼”,该活动考虑了在一个永久被美国辐射占领的海洋景观中,非殖民化是什么样子。对MISA来说,非殖民化的核正义涉及作为核非殖民化的一种关键形式,重新构成马绍尔与受辐照海洋的土地关系。

Nuclear Settler Colonialism at Sea, or How to Civilize an Ocean
Abstract:This essay asks us to reconceptualize nuclear colonialism in the Pacific as a form of settler colonialism, arguing that through nuclear testing the US applied older settler colonial principles of property and appropriation to previously unclaimed ocean spaces. Through an analysis of the Applied Fisheries Laboratory archives, I show how colonial legal doctrines provided a framework within which the American nuclear complex could conceptualize itself as properly owning the ocean that it had put to "productive use" through nuclear testing, with radiation serving as a settler colonial prosthesis that continues to impose colonial land relations even in the absence of settlers themselves. At the same time, I show how the Pacific itself shaped the emergence of US nuclearism, as its surprisingly resilient ecologies allowed the nuclear complex to continue to think of its destructive activities as compatible with the ongoing survival of life. The essay closes with an analysis of the Marshall Islands Student Association's 2019 campaign "My Fish Is Your Fish," which considers what decolonization looks like in an oceanscape that is permanently occupied by American radiation. For MISA, decolonial nuclear justice involves recomposing Marshallese land relations with the irradiated ocean as a critical form of nuclear decolonization.

期刊介绍: American Quarterly represents innovative interdisciplinary scholarship that engages with key issues in American Studies. The journal publishes essays that examine American societies and cultures, past and present, in global and local contexts. This includes work that contributes to our understanding of the United States in its diversity, its relations with its hemispheric neighbors, and its impact on world politics and culture. Through the publication of reviews of books, exhibitions, and diverse media, the journal seeks to make available the broad range of emergent approaches to American Studies.
