This paper examines transport and mobility in rural and remote communities, focusing on trade-offs between development and environmental protection in the Anthropocene. In Sarawak, a state of Malaysia, unpaved logging roads provide basic mobility for remote communities while contributing to the unsustainable and inequitable extraction of natural resources. I argue that the conditions under which transport infrastructure is provided prevent the possibility for sustainable development and pitch local people against a landscape that is the source of livelihoods and identities. The paper is interested in the life and agency of infrastructure and the environment, new materialism and critical approaches to development within human geography.

人类世的流动性、基础设施和人类环境关系

本文研究了农村和偏远社区的交通和流动性,重点关注人类世发展与环境保护之间的权衡。在马来西亚沙捞越州,未铺砌的伐木道路为偏远社区提供了基本的流动性,同时也导致了自然资源的不可持续和不公平的开采。我认为,交通基础设施的提供条件阻碍了可持续发展的可能性,并使当地人与作为生计和身份来源的景观背道而驰。本文对基础设施和环境的生命和作用、新唯物主义以及人文地理学中发展的批判方法感兴趣。
