Description

Coastal management has been greatly influenced by the rise of environmentalism, with its greater emphasis on the preservation of natural processes and restoration of habitats. Environmental change and rising sea levels has made the subject especially topical and today managed retreat is seen as a plausible strategy of coastal management, if a controversial one for some. Land Abandoned to the Sea offers a detailed history of how the concept emerged and a rigorous theoretical consideration of its implications. The author includes a range of case studies and concludes with a consideration of the governance implications of managed retreat. Review This is a fine and tightly argued book about the transformation of the liminal edges of land and sea. The climate crisis will bring new challenges with rising seas, yet the east coast has long been a site for storm surge and raised sea walls, for deliberate breach and realignment. Such changes exemplify inner shifts too - how we think about nature, how we might seek to influence or stand back.Professor Jules Pretty OBE, author of This Luminous Coast (2011) and The East Country (2017) About the Author Stuart Oliver is Senior Lecturer in Geography at St Mary's University, Twickenham, London. He has published widely on environmental hazards and political ecology of nature and has a particular interest in the cultural geography of nature
