Actors and Agency (Dis)Connecting Cities and Nature Since 1500

Herausgeber: Soens, Tim; Toyka-Seid, Michael; Schott, Dieter

Beschreibung

The more people are living in cities, the more nature is said to be "urbanizing": turned into a resource or commodity and mobilized over long distances. Urbanizing Nature aims to counter teleological perspectives on the birth of modern "urban nature", unravelling actors and processes urbanizing nature from 1500 till today.
