How does one tell the story of energy production, use, or
conservation in a manner sufficiently convincing to influence
policy, behavior, and design? Energy Accounts explores potential
answers to this question through compelling images, data
visualizations, narratives, and other examples of accounting for
energy. Organized into a collection containing both examples of
best practices and critiques, this impressive array of projects and
contributors combines text and graphic material to explore
different representations of energy data. Including work from
Kieran Timberlake, SHoP, AMO, Lateral Office, WOHA, and many more,
the book boasts a unique graphic design which supports and enhances
its role as a valuable resource for professionals and students in
architecture, engineering, and urban design.

Examines how images of accumulation help open up the climate to
political mobilization  The current epoch is one of
accumulation: not only of capital but also of raw, often unruly
material, from plastic in the ocean and carbon in the atmosphere to
people, buildings, and cities. Alongside this material growth,
image-making practices embedded within the fields of art and
architecture have proven to be fertile, mobile, and capacious.
Images of accumulation help open up the climate to cultural inquiry
and political mobilization and have formed a cultural
infrastructure focused on the relationships between humans, other
species, and their environments. The essays in Accumulation address
this cultural infrastructure and the methodological challenges of
its analysis. They offer a response to the relative invisibility of
the climate now seen as material manifestations of social behavior.
Contributors outline opportunities and ambitions of visual
scholarship as a means to encounter the challenges emergent in the
current moment: how can climate become visible, culturally and
politically? Knowledge of climatic instability can change
collective behavior and offer other trajectories,
counteraccumulations that draw the present into a different, more
livable, future. Contributors: Emily Apter, New York U; Hans

Description: The work of John Howard Yoder has become increasingly
influential in recent years. Moreover, it is gaining influence in
some surprising places. No longer restricted to the world of
theological ethicists and Mennonites, Yoder has been discovered as
a refreshing voice by scholars working in many other fields. For
thirty-five years, Yoder was known primarily as an articulate
defender of Christian pacifism against a theological ethics guild
dominated by the Troeltschian assumptions reflected in the work of
Walter Rauschenbusch and Reinhold and Richard Niebuhr. But in the
last decade, there has been a clearly identifiable shift in
direction. A new generation of scholars has begun reading Yoder
alongside figures most often associated with post-structuralism,
neo-Nietzscheanism, and post-colonialism, resulting in original and
productive new readings of his work. At the same time, scholars
from outside of theology and ethics departments, indeed outside of
Christianity itself, like Romand Coles and Daniel Boyarin, have
discovered in Yoder a significant conversation partner for their
own work. This volume collects some of the best of those essays in
hope of encouraging more such work from readers of Yoder and in
hopes of attracting others to his important work. Endorsements:
""The New Yoder is John Howard Yoder as dialogue partner both with
and against the grain of Adorno, Foucault, Derrida, de Certeau,
Horkheimer, Rowan Williams, Said, Stout, Volf, and many more. Here
is patient, Christian theological pacifism beyond the either/ors
that burdened a previous generation: beyond universalism vs.
isolationism, Church vs. world, politics vs. quietism, Scripture
vs. social activism. Here the eschaton meets postmodernity. The
result? Anguished laughter, exilic politics, apocalypse, and
dialogue: the work of Yoder-reading for our time."" --Peter Ochs
