How does American "drowned town" literature, from Mud on the Stars to Sugaree Rising, contribute to the social erasure of Indigeneity? How does road movie scholarship ignore the materiality of the road in favor of modes of travel? How is agency depicted in the energy landscape photography of oil pipelines and coal-powered reactors? How do the novels and films about death trains, from the historical trains of African colonization and the Holocaust to fictional trains such as Snowpiercer and Train to Busan, connect infrastructure with necropower? While most examples are from North American literature, film, and photography, the book also discusses media from around the world in terms of the necropolitical valences of infrastructure. 001386697 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386697 650_0 $$aLandscapes in art. 001386697 650_0 $$aLandscapes$$xSymbolic aspects. 001386697 650_0 $$aInfrastructure (Economics) 001386697 650_0 $$aArts and society. 001386697 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386697 852__ $$bebk 001386697 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/10905.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386697 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386697 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386697$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386697 980__ $$aBIB 001386697 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386697 982__ $$aEbook 001386697 983__ $$aOnline
