This book critically reflects on dominant landscape techniques, discusses landscapes that are marginalised through globalising market forces, and focuses on the collective nature of landscapes–from planetary climates to intimate private spaces.
This book critically reflects on dominant landscape techniques, discusses landscapes that are marginalised through globalising market forces, and focuses on the collective nature of landscapes–from planetary climates to intimate private spaces. Whether in views from above or the mirror and mirage that landscapes can create, landscape practices too often foreground hegemony and embolden individuals with power, while simultaneously concealing the actions from which they are produced. Chapters show how landscapes are only possible through the collective contribution of humans and non-humans, interacting, sharing between, providing for, and making with. Collective Landscape Futures investigates the common, shared, and public endeavours that produce landscapes. Chapters address varied concerns across diverse geographies, from wilding practices to extractive landscapes and from decolonizing approaches to tools for co-creation. This volume will appeal to scholars and activists working in environmental humanities, landscape studies, and landscape architecture, and the many disciplines which converge around these topics, including design, geography, anthropology, philosophy, and politics.
