Provides the historical perspective that is typically missing from recent work in environmental anthropology
Includes an extensive intellectual history and commentary by the volume’s editors
Offers a unique perspective on current interest in cross-cultural environmental relations
Divided into five thematic sections: (1) the nature/culture divide; (2) relationship between environment and social organization; (3) methodological debates and innovations; (4) politics and practice; and (5) epistemological issues of environmental anthropology
Organized into a series of paired papers, which ‘speak’ to each other, designed to encourage readers to make connections that they might not customarily make
