Summary, Etc.  
요약The first half of this study (chs. 1-3) is a synthesis of secondary theoretical research from ecological Marxism, materialist media theory, world-systems theory, and critical development studies. Through a linked series of keyword excavations - nature, ideology, hegemony, Global South, class, infrastructure - this part of the study sketches the contours of an eco-socialist rhetorical theory and makes a case for the continuing value and relevance of historical-materialist ideology critique as a methodological framework (Cloud; McGee; Therborn).The second half (chs. 4-6) consists of three case studies that use this framework to illustrate in concrete terms the local, material effects of "bourgeois naturalism" as a set of ideological and rhetorical strategies deployed by the transnational capitalist class to rationalize the ecological violence (including climate apartheid and climate colonialism) that is an enabling condition of 21st-century global capitalism. By analyzing a handful of primary texts - including a documentary about the 2018 California wildfire season, government documents related to the 2014 expansion of the Mariposa Land Port of Entry on the US-Mexico border, and a memoir/manifesto by Ugandan climate justice activist Vanessa Nakate - this half of the study shows how and why the ideological effects of "bourgeois naturalism" include particular kinds of cost-shifting, blame-shifting, and capacity-shifting.In the process, the study also examines the potential (and the limits) of the term "Global South" as a counter-hegemonic form of left-populist "constitutive rhetoric" (Charland) and "ecological class consciousness" (Barca) - i.e., an attempt by the "environmental proletariat" (Foster) to contest bourgeois ways of defining and relating to nature in favor of dialectical ones, and to foster an "eco-political common sense" (Fraser) that might serve as an organizing principle for future efforts by the global working class (broadly defined to include both productive and reproductive labor, paid or unpaid) to oppose capitalism's threat to planetary livability and assert their right to democratic control over the means of production, the means of survival, and the means of communication.One piece of the study (§5.1-5.4) also considers the relevance to college writing pedagogy of climate justice struggles, structural class analysis, and critical ecological literacy.
