The lecture will explore this question in the context of some of the current challenges to traditional nature conservation perspectives, notably climate change and the growing interest in rewilding perspectives. Both of these question notions of nature conservation based on always looking to the past for precedents to guide practice - Is a more interventionist, more fluid nature conservation now required?
