摘要

本文回顾了最近出版的三本书:乔纳森·斯特恩的《能力减弱:损害的政治现象学》,内塔·亚历山大和阿琼·阿帕杜莱的《失败》,以及伊丽莎白·埃尔塞瑟的《紧急情况下》。本文认为,这三部作品通过提出一种不将能力视为规范假设的非能力主义视角,对媒体理论和媒体实践都产生了影响,从而促进了关于媒体和残疾的辩论。在这方面,本文确定了媒体研究中可能改变游戏规则的三个关键词:损伤、失败、紧急情况。这些书强调了这些术语的“正常”、“平庸”或“习惯”特征,展示了这些关键词如何使我们超越媒体作为假体的传统观念,并呼吁对媒体和媒体研究采取不同的方法:一种不隐喻残疾的方法,而是将媒体理解为社会文化、政治和经济背景的一部分,在这种背景下,某种能力和残疾的概念既被定义又被实际制定。因此,这是一种旨在解构这种观点的方法。

Impairment, failure, emergency: A review essay on recent trends in media and disability studies
In this essay, three recently published books are reviewed: Diminished Faculties: A Political Phenomenology of Impairment, by Jonathan Sterne, Failure, by Neta Alexander and Arjun Appadurai, and In Case of Emergency, by Elizabeth Ellcessor. The essay argues that these three works contribute to the debate about media and disability by proposing a non ableist perspective – that is a perspective which doesn’t consider ability as a normative assumption – which affects both media theory and media practices. In this regard, the essay identifies three keywords which are potentially game changers in media studies: impairment, failure, emergency. Emphasizing the ‘normal’, ‘banal’ or ‘habitual’ character of these terms, the books here reviewed show how these keywords may enable us to go beyond the traditional idea of media as prostheses, and call for a different approach toward media and media studies: one which does not metaphorize disability but understands media as part of the sociocultural, political and economic context where a certain idea of ability and disability is both defined and materially enacted. An approach, therefore, that aims to deconstruct that idea.
