アカデミズムがショック・ドクトリン?! via ake.note
被災地へ赴こうとしている学者・研究者のみなさん 学者・研究者へ対する被災地の当事者の感情は、もはや不信感から怒りへ変わりつつあることに気づいてください。「俺たちは、学者のモルモットじゃない」と語る被災地の人々の声があります。 大学教授がさも当然のように被災地へ来て、フィールドワークと称し、津波で全財産を失って先行き不透明な暮らしの中で、仮設住宅で暮らす人々を呼びつけて、同情然として話を聞き歩く。ひとつやふたつの大学、教授、研究者ではありません。たくさんの研究者に対しての声です。被災地を立ち上げる、寄り添う意志のない方は、来るべきではありません。研究者の「思いつき」が被災地の負担にさえなっています。1日フィールドワークして、聞いた話を簡単に研究報告にまとめる作業はべつのところでやってください。情けなさ過ぎます。 続きは アカデミズムがショック・ドクトリン?!
「原発がどんなものか知ってほしい」ネット上を浮遊する原発現場監督の遺言 via 日刊サイゾー
「原発がどんなものか知ってほしい」というタイトルのテキストがネット上に出回っている(http://www.iam-t.jp/HIRAI/)。 さまざまなサイトに転載されているこのテキストは、現場監督として原発に携わってきた一級プラント配管技能士・平井憲夫氏の講演録だ。1997年、58歳の若さで亡くなった平井氏。しかし、このテキストだけが独り歩きし、これまでネットの世界で生き延びてきた。 そんな平井氏とともに、原発を取材してきたのが『福島原発 現場監督の遺言』(講談社)を刊行したジャーナリストの恩田勝亘だ。本書は、生前に行われた平井氏との取材の様子や、平井氏が遺した言葉などから、原発の現場が抱える構造的な問題を浮かび上がらせる。 (中略) 本書が告発する原発の姿は、にわかには信じがたいものばかりだ。僕は、震災前に、「原発がどんなものか知ってほしい」を偶然発見したとき、その内容 を信じることができなかった。そこに描かれる仕事ぶりは「原発」というイメージからはあまりにもかけ離れたずさん過ぎるものだったため、逆に「アンチ原発 派による恣意的な文章なのではないか」と疑った。まさか、「原子力」などという最先端かつ危険なものを取扱っている現場に、このようなずさんな工事がある はずがない。だが、福島第一原発事故以降の東電や政府の対応を見ていると、どちらが本当のことを語っているかは自ずとわかってくる。これまで日本社会には、平井の言葉に耳を傾ける者はほとんどいなかった。そして、福島第一原発事故は発生した。 全文は「原発がどんなものか知ってほしい」ネット上を浮遊する原発現場監督の遺言 ◇ 当サイト既出関連記事: ・『原発がどんなものか知ってほしい』 ・『原発がどんなものか知ってほしい』リンク追加
