ECOLOGICAL MIGRATION LITERATURE: A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS IN GLOBAL AND UZBEK CONTEXTS
Аннотация
This article examines the emerging genre of ecological migration literature, analyzing its development within the global cli-fi (climate fiction) movement and its nascent presence in Uzbek literature. Drawing upon international organization data (UN, IOM) projecting 200 million climate migrants by 2050, the study applies postcolonial theory (Bhabha's "third space," hybridity) and transnational literary analysis to examine how environmental displacement is aesthetically represented. Through detailed analysis of major world works (Bacigalupi, Kingsolver, El Akkad, Robinson, McConaghy) and emerging Uzbek contexts (Aral Sea catastrophe, desertification, rural-urban climate migration), the article identifies key narrative patterns: dystopian resource conflicts, intergenerational identity crises, "unhomeliness," and socio-economic-ecological hybrid causation. Comparative methodology reveals both universal cli-fi tendencies and specifically Central Asian characteristics, arguing for the potential of Uzbek literature to contribute to global ecological discourse through localized engagement with the Aral Sea environmental trauma and climate-induced labor migration.
