Om War & Peat

War & Peat - The remarkable impacts of conflicts on peatlands and of peatlands on conflicts - a military heritage of moors, heaths, bogs and fens. As we approach the centenary of the Great War (WW1), matters of landscape, terrain, resources and strategies become increasingly topical and relevant. The relationships of people and landscapes, of economies and conflicts, and ecology and history, are complex and multi-faceted. For peatlands, including bogs, fens, moors, and heaths, the interactions of people and nature in relation to history and conflicts, are both significant and surprising. The themes of this book were addressed at a major international conference in 2013, and the expanded papers are presented here as chapters. The conference and book are mostly focused on temperate environments, but the interactions of peatlands and conflicts are more global and wetlands have been hugely influential in tropical conflicts too.

Beskrivning av War & Peat

War & Peat - The remarkable impacts of conflicts
on peatlands and of peatlands on conflicts - a military
heritage of moors, heaths, bogs and fens.
As we approach the centenary of the Great War (WW1),
matters of landscape, terrain, resources and strategies become
increasingly topical and relevant. The relationships of people
and landscapes, of economies and conflicts, and ecology and
history, are complex and multi-faceted. For peatlands,
including bogs, fens, moors, and heaths, the interactions of
people and nature in relation to history and conflicts, are both
significant and surprising.
The themes of this book were addressed at a major
international conference in 2013, and the expanded papers are
presented here as chapters. The conference and book are
mostly focused on temperate environments, but the interactions
of peatlands and conflicts are more global and wetlands have
been hugely influential in tropical conflicts too.
