Description

Explore the complex connections between human culture and the natural world with Uncommon Ground: Landscape, Values and the Environment. As international concern regarding green issues grows, this book examines why mechanistic solutions often fail to address environmental challenges. It provides a necessary look at the cultural values that shape how humans relate to their surroundings. By comparing two distinct groups in Far North Queensland - the Aboriginal people and white cattle farmers - this work investigates how the human-environmental relationship is culturally constructed. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of why different cultural groups value land in different ways and how these perspectives influence environmental management. This text is an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the social and cultural dimensions of environmental relations.
