This book provides a comprehensive insight into the contemporary
naturecultural world by exploring infrastructures through the
dwelling approach. The notion of naturecultures has been utilized
in environmental humanities and social sciences to emphasize the
inherent messiness of the lived world and the inseparability of
social and biophysical elements. Concept of naturecultures stresses
that seemingly "natural" is always simultaneously "cultural" and
vice versa. This approach allows fleshing out the messy engagements
with infrastructures, which in this book is conceptualized as
infrastructural being. This book is a contribution to emerging
discussions on infrastructures in the fields of environmental
social sciences and humanities. It sensitizes to the peculiarities
of modern dwelling and modern, yet often overlooked, ways of being
connected with nature. Moreover, it provides tools for speculating,
how could things be otherwise. The book is a topical response to
the urgent call for developing new forms of human-nature relations
in times of environmental turbulence.
