0 avis

Note

Nature and Power traces the expanding scope of environmental action over the course of history: from initiatives undertaken by individual villages and cities, environmental policy has become a global concern. Efforts to steer human use of nature and natural resources have become complicated, as Nature and Power shows, by particularities of culture and by the vagaries of human nature itself. Environmental history, the author argues, is ultimately the history of human hopes and fears. Truly global in perspective and surveys the entire course of human history from prehistoric times to the present Accessible, aimed at a non-specialists It does not treat environmental history in isolation: humanity's interaction with the natural world is placed in political, social, and cultural context
