Landscape Citizenships: A Roundtable
What would it mean to fully embrace the concept of landscape as a milieu of situated, everyday practices, encompassing the mutually constitutive relations between people and place? Might understanding key topics such as marginalization, indigeneity, globalization, resource degradation and extraction through the framework of landscape citizenships foster new ways of being and belonging in landscapes? And how can landscape studies, a field with roots in Western cartographic and imperial traditions, establish scholarly and activist frameworks that facilitate inclusivity, belonging, and justice?
On Friday, October 29, Tim Waterman, Ed Wall, and Jane Wolff—co-editors of the recently published edited volume Landscape Citizenships (Routledge, 2021)—will join Thaïsa Way, Director of Garden and Landscape Studies at Dumbarton Oaks, to consider these and other questions in a roundtable discussion and celebration of their new book.
Time: 18:30 BST
