Keeping the Wild: Against the Domestication of Earth

BuchPaperback

Produktinformationen

Is it time to embrace the so-called "Anthropocene"--the age of human dominion--and to abandon tried-and-true conservation tools such as parks and wilderness areas? Is the future of Earth to be fully domesticated, an engineered global garden managed by technocrats to serve humanity? The schism between advocates of rewilding and those who accept and and even celebrate a "post-wild" world is arguably the hottest intellectual battle in contemporary conservation.
