Abstract

Ovaj se radi temelji na istraživanju urbanog prijepora i naracija straha od mobilne infrastrukture povezane s elektromagnetskim zagađenjem u Zagrebu. Budući da su naracije straha ispoljene putem prosvjeda i drugih aktivnosti, ovaj je fenomen sagledan kroz prizmu slučajnog ekološkog aktivizma koji je prerastao u oblik digitalnog aktivizma. Pri tome su primijenjeni teorijski postulati antropologije infrastrukture i zagađenja, polazeći od relacijske dimenzije infrastrukture i čovjeka, odnosno društvenih efekata infrastrukture. Uslijed nemogućnosti dolaska do kazivača, istraživanje je provedeno 2023. godine pomoću medijske etnografije - medijskih portala i YouTube kanala „Kvart Vrbani“. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da je nerazumijevanje elektromagnetskog zračenja predstavljalo ključne razloge zbog kojeg je pokrenut protest građana, da je nužna bolja javna komunikacija znanstvenika te komunikacija javnih donositelja odluka sa zajednicom prilikom smještanja mobilne infrastrukture u određeno područje.

Abstract (english)

This work is based on the research of urban conflict and narratives of fear related to mobile infrastructure connected to electromagnetic pollution in Zagreb. Since narratives of fear are expressed through protests and other activities, this phenomenon is examined through the lens of accidental ecological activism that has evolved into a form of digital activism. Theoretical postulates of the anthropology of infrastructure and pollution are applied, starting from the relational dimension of infrastructure and humans, or the social effects of infrastructure. Due to the impossibility of reaching informants, the research was conducted in 2023 through media ethnography - media portals and YouTube channel "Kvart Vrbani." The research results showed that a lack of understanding of electromagnetic radiation was a significant reason for citizen protests, highlighting the need for better public communication by scientists and decision-makers when locating mobile infrastructure in a specific area.
