PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
by Felix Anderl (Editor)
This book reconstructs how a diversity of land knowledges has historically been reduced to understanding land only as commodity. The collection shows the consequences of this epistemological reduction and the potentials of understanding land in more diverse and sustainable ways, thereby changing our understanding of land and those living on it.
