Abstract

"The COVID-19 pandemic has re-ignited discussions of how architects, landscapes, and urban planners can shape the environment in response to disease. This challenge is both a timely topic and one with an illuminating history. In The Topography of Wellness, Sara Jensen Carr offers a chronological narrative of how six epidemics transformed the American urban landscape, reflecting changing views of the power of design, pathology of disease, and the epidemiology of the environment. From the infectious diseases of cholera and tuberculosis, to so-called "social diseases" of idleness and crime, to the more complicated origins of today's chronic diseases, each illness and its associated combat strategies has left its mark on our surroundings. While each solution succeeded in eliminating the disease on some level, sweeping environmental changes often came with significant social and physical consequences. Even more unexpectedly, some adaptations inadvertently incubated future epidemics. From the Industrial Revolution to present day, this book illuminates the constant evolution of our relationship to wellness and the environment by documenting the shifting grounds of illness and the urban landscape"--

Abstract

Les maladies infectieuses ont longtemps été la cause majeure de mortalité en Europe. Leur contrôle progressif a permis un allongement spectaculaire de l’espérance de vie et a laissé la place au règne des maladies chroniques (maladies cardiovasculaires et neurodégénératives, cancers). Sans nier l’influence de polymorphismes génétiques et des facteurs dits de « style de vie » (tabac, alcool, déséquilibres alimentaires, sédentarité), l’auteur montre comment les modifications de nos écosystèmes depuis le début de l’Anthropocène et notre environnement physico-chimique actuel (polluants organiques persistants, perturbateurs endocriniens, polluants atmosphériques…) contribuent à la survenue de ces maladies chroniques. Il s’agit non seulement de comprendre les causes des décès, mais d’identifier les causes de ces causes.

Abstract

Repérer des victimes, confondre des suspects : les mobilisations dans le domaine de la santé environnementale se présentent désormais comme de véritables enquêtes policières. À la différence près que, dans ce domaine, les investigations ne sont pas menées uniquement par des enquêteurs professionnels. Les « profanes » cherchent eux aussi à rendre visibles les menaces auxquelles ils pensent être exposés et à établir la réalité des dommages dont ils s’estiment les victimes. Cet ouvrage rassemble une série de travaux anglo-saxons pionniers sur des affaires célèbres qui illustrent le rôle crucial joué par les non-spécialistes dans les controverses portant sur les liens entre l’environnement et la santé.

Abstract

Les installations industrielles peuvent-elles provoquer des cancers ? C’est en tout cas la perception de certains acteurs locaux : ils signalent aux autorités publiques que leur environnement recèle des risques pour la santé. Les épidémiologistes ont tendance à récuser les hypothèses relatives à une origine environnementale de ces pathologies, surtout lorsque l’on en fait la cause unique, et ils assurent que ces craintes ne sont pas fondées. Pour faire reconnaître l’existence de risques et en obtenir le contrôle ou la suppression, les acteurs locaux en viennent à se mobiliser et à médiatiser leur cause. L’ouvrage présente et discute trois de ces signalements : Saint-Cyr l’École et ses relais de téléphonie mobile, Vincennes et la pollution d’une ancienne usine chimique, Nivillac et son incinérateur. L’approche comparative permet de développer une analyse de ces signalements par les populations concernées et ouvre sur la question de l’ancrage culturel des risques.
