I10-R288-article-460012024-12-27T02:01:13Z The environmental collapse in affective terms: emotions and media narratives to move from anesthesia to action El colapso ambiental en clave afectiva: emociones y narrativas mediáticas para pasar de la anestesia a la acción Echevarría, Luciana afectividad emociones colapso civilizatorio narrativas mediáticas acción colectiva affectivity emotions civilizational collapse media narratives collective action This work tackles the processes of meaning-making in socio-environmental struggles through a confluence of approaches between studies of emotions and social communication, highlighting the political dimension of affectivity. It relies on the affective turn to understand emotions as social constructions that influence and are influenced by media narratives, which in turn impact on collective experiences. In this way, the role of emotions in the context of climate change and environmental collapse is analyzed, considering the work Afectividad ambiental. Sensibilidad, empatía, estéticas del habitar (2020) by Omar Felipe Giraldo and Ingrid Toro, who argue that civilizational collapse is an affective problem, therefore it is necessary to dismantle the “regimen of affectivity” of capitalist modernity that keeps us anesthetized. Furthermore, an exploratory analysis of media narratives on social networks is conducted, focusing on how activists and social movements appeal to emotions to promote collective action, primarily through the aesthetics of shock, rhetorical figures, metaphors, and images of confrontation. Este trabajo aborda los procesos de significación en la lucha socioambiental mediante una confluencia de enfoques entre los estudios de emociones y los de comunicación social, destacando la dimensión política de la afectividad. Se parte del giro afectivo para entender las emociones como construcciones sociales que influyen y son influenciadas por las narrativas mediáticas, que a su vez impactan en las experiencias colectivas. De esta manera, se analiza el papel de las emociones en el contexto del cambio climático y colapso ambiental, para lo cual se considera la obra Afectividad ambiental. Sensibilidad, empatía, estéticas del habitar (2020) de Omar Felipe Giraldo e Ingrid Toro, quienes argumentan que el colapso civilizatorio es un problema afectivo, por lo que es necesario desmantelar el “régimen de afectividad” de la modernidad capitalista que nos mantiene anestesiados. Además, se realiza un análisis exploratorio de narrativas mediáticas en redes sociales, enfocándose en cómo activistas y movimientos sociales apelan a emociones para fomentar la acción colectiva, principalmente mediante la estética del shock, figuras retóricas, metáforas e imágenes de confrontación.

This work tackles the processes of meaning-making in socio-environmental struggles through a confluence of approaches between studies of emotions and social communication, highlighting the political dimension of affectivity. It relies on the affective turn to understand emotions as social constructions that influence and are influenced by media narratives, which in turn impact on collective experiences. In this way, the role of emotions in the context of climate change and environmental collapse is analyzed, considering the work Afectividad ambiental. Sensibilidad, empatía, estéticas del habitar (2020) by Omar Felipe Giraldo and Ingrid Toro, who argue that civilizational collapse is an affective problem, therefore it is necessary to dismantle the “regimen of affectivity” of capitalist modernity that keeps us anesthetized. Furthermore, an exploratory analysis of media narratives on social networks is conducted, focusing on how activists and social movements appeal to emotions to promote collective action, primarily through the aesthetics of shock, rhetorical figures, metaphors, and images of confrontation. |
