{"product_id":"bhopals-ecological-gothic-pramod-k-nayar-9781498540452","title":"Bhopal's Ecological Gothic: Disaster, Precarity, and the Biopolitical Uncanny","description":"The book studies the cultural texts--fiction, protest effigies, photographs, films, reportage, eyewitness accounts, campaign posters and reports--produced around the world's worst industrial disaster: the Bhopal tragedy of 1984. It makes a case for an ecological Gothic, wherein the city, its landscape and its people are Gothicized. After tracing the history of the disaster as a history of negligence, the book proceeds in later chapters to study the coverage of the events themselves by eyewitnesses and survivors, and the remnants, in various forms, of the disaster - the haunting - within human bodies and nature. Finally, it examines the industrial ruins and the mobilization of protests against Union Carbide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pramod K.
