Book excerpt: During the nineteenth century, the development and codification of forest science in France were closely linked to Provence's time-honored tradition of mobile pastoralism, which formed a major part of the economy. At the beginning of the century, pastoralism also featured prominently in the economies and social traditions of North Africa and southwestern Anatolia until French forest agents implemented ideas and practices for forest management in these areas aimed largely at regulating and marginalizing Mediterranean mobile pastoral traditions. These practices changed not only landscapes but also the social order of these three Mediterranean societies and the nature of French colonial administration. In Nomad's Land Andrea E. Duffy investigates the relationship between Mediterranean mobile pastoralism and nineteenth-century French forestry through case studies in Provence, French colonial Algeria, and Ottoman Anatolia. By restricting the use of shared spaces, foresters helped bring the populations of Provence and Algeria under the control of the state, and French scientific forestry became a medium for state initiatives to sedentarize mobile pastoral groups in Anatolia. Locals responded through petitions, arson, violence, compromise, and adaptation. Duffy shows that French efforts to promote scientific forestry both internally and abroad were intimately tied to empire building and paralleled the solidification of Western narratives condemning the pastoral tradition, leading to sometimes tragic outcomes for both the environment and pastoralists.

Book Synopsis The Waning of the Mediterranean, 1550–1870 by : Faruk Tabak
Download or read book The Waning of the Mediterranean, 1550–1870 written by Faruk Tabak and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2008-02-11 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2008 Outstanding Academic Title, Choice Magazine Conventional scholarship on the Mediterranean portrays the Inner Sea as a timeless entity with unchanging ecological and agrarian features. But, Faruk Tabak argues, some of the "traditional" and "olden" characteristics that we attribute to it today are actually products of relatively recent developments. Locating the shifting fortunes of Mediterranean city-states and empires in patterns of long-term economic and ecological change, this study shows how the quintessential properties of the basin—the trinity of cereals, tree crops, and small livestock—were reestablished as the Mediterranean's importance in global commerce, agriculture, and politics waned. Tabak narrates this history not from the vantage point of colossal empires, but from that of the mercantile republics that played a pivotal role as empire-building city-states. His unique juxtaposition of analyses of world economic developments that flowed from the decline of these city-states and the ecological change associated with the Little Ice Age depicts large-scale, long-term social change. Integrating the story of the western and eastern Mediterranean—from Genoa and the Habsburg empire to Venice and the Ottoman and Byzantine empires—Tabak unveils the complex process of devolution and regeneration that brought about the eclipse of the Mediterranean.
Book Synopsis The Nature of Mediterranean Europe by : Alfred Thomas Grove
Download or read book The Nature of Mediterranean Europe written by Alfred Thomas Grove and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This large volume draws on evidence from fieldwork, historical records, archaeology, pollen analysis and recent research in discussing the ecology of Mediterranean Europe from the past to the present day. Grove and Rackham provide clear explanations and discussions of different ecosystems, of ruined landscapes, climate fluctuations and vegetation change, the impact of fire, terracing, agriculture and man's changing subsistence strategies, of coastal erosion and deforestation. A highly readable book, packed full of information, which also assesses the pessimistic view that many people hold over the future of the landscape and environment.

Book Synopsis Trees, Forested Landscapes and Grazing Animals by : Ian D. Rotherham
Download or read book Trees, Forested Landscapes and Grazing Animals written by Ian D. Rotherham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive book, the critical components of the European landscape – forest, parkland, and other grazed landscapes with trees are addressed. The book considers the history of grazed treed landscapes, of large grazing herbivores in Europe, and the implications of the past in shaping our environment today and in the future. Debates on the types of anciently grazed landscapes in Europe, and what they tell us about past and present ecology, have been especially topical and controversial recently. This treatment brings the current discussions and the latest research to a much wider audience. The book breaks new ground in broadening the scope of wood-pasture and woodland research to address sites and ecologies that have previously been overlooked but which hold potential keys to understanding landscape dynamics. Eminent contributors, including Oliver Rackham and Frans Vera, present a text which addresses the importance of history in understanding the past landscape, and the relevance of historical ecology and landscape studies in providing a future vision.

Book Synopsis Le risque feu de forêt by : Hubert Seillan
Download or read book Le risque feu de forêt written by Hubert Seillan and published by Préventique. This book was released on 2006 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La forêt est à la fois une source d'équilibre écologique, une richesse économique et un espace géographique et touristique. Ecosystème fragile, elle dépend fortement de l'action des hommes tant pour son développement que pour sa sauvegarde. Mais elle est également menacée par l'homme parce qu'il étend de plus en plus son emprise sur les territoires forestiers, parce qu'il est également porteur de risque et même une menace d'incendie. Si le bois est un parfait matériau isolant, on sait depuis la nuit des temps qu'il est également très facilement inflammable, même à l'état naturel, tout particulièrement dans les périodes de sécheresse et de chaleur. Le feu est pour la forêt ce que la mort est pour la vie ! L'un ne va pas sans l'autre. II est alors de la responsabilité des hommes de garantir la vie de leurs forêts. Ce petit ouvrage doit y contribuer. Comme tous ceux de cette collection, ce livre a été établi à partir d'études publiées dans les revues des Éditions Préventique et plus précisément pour celui-ci dans Préventique Sécurité. C'est dire que ses auteurs sont tous des très grands professionnels de la question. Ils sont forestiers et officiers de services d'incendie et de secours, ingénieurs chimistes, juristes, agents de l'agriculture, de l'environnement, élus locaux, responsables associatifs etc. Ce nouvel ouvrage de la collection Les Cahiers de Préventique s'adresse spécialement à tous ceux qui sont attachés à la forêt. Ce livre vise tout d'abord à faire comprendre que le feu de forêt est avant tout un phénomène culturel, ce qui permet de concevoir qu'il doive être envisagé comme un risque social et économique. Un risque qui doit être pris en compte autant par tous ceux qui ont une influence culturelle que par ceux qui exercent des pouvoirs administratifs, économiques et opérationnels. Le retour d'expérience doit dès lors être nécessairement au cœur de l'analyse des risques. II occupe donc une place essentielle dans ce dossier, avec en particulier une importante contribution sur les grands incendies d'Amérique du Nord.
