#5 Reinventing rural landscapes, and holding their destroyers accountable
Show notes
When urban inhabitants settle in rural areas in Spain, they bring along their own ideas of how to produce food and how to engage with nature. While they bring innovation, they sometimes also cause disruption, says nature anthropologist Elena Concepción, and all this requires (new) regulations. Regulations are also an essential part of efforts to protect nature and the environment in many South American states, and the question Martina Lasalle explorse in her work is why so many states have been reluctant to regulate crimes against nature. Both approaches explore how we relate to, exploit, or protect landscapes, nature and the environment in the Anthropocene.
