<p>"Drawing from really wide and diverse thoughts that affect our universe, <i>Collective Landscape Futures</i> reimagines our relation with self and our world, making a compelling and pragmatic reading which has the power to pivot the profession into a new, relevant and exciting journey."</p><p><b>Aniket Bhagwat</b>, <i>Principal Partner at M/S. Prabhakar B. Bhagwat, India</i></p><p>“<i>Collective Landscape Futures</i> is a vital contribution to the evolving discourse of landscape architecture and design. It challenges the dominance of individualistic, extractive frameworks and instead highlights the necessity of cooperation, shared motivations, and collective action. By centering multiple voices, more-than-human relationships, and alternative practices of place-making, this book charts a crucial path forward for more just, interconnected, and resilient landscapes.”</p><p><b>Julia Watson</b>, <i>Author, </i>Lo—TEK Design By Radical Indigenism and Lo—TEK Water, A Field Guide for TEKnologists<i>; Principal, Julia Watson Studio; and Co-founder, Lo—TEK Institute</i></p>
This book critically reflects on dominant landscape techniques, discusses landscapes that are marginalised through globalising market forces, and focuses on the collective nature of landscapes–from planetary climates to intimate private spaces. Whether in views from above or the mirror and mirage that landscapes can create, landscape practices too often foreground hegemony and embolden individuals with power, while simultaneously concealing the actions from which they are produced. Chapters show how landscapes are only possible through the collective contribution of humans and non-humans, interacting, sharing between, providing for, and making with. Collective Landscape Futures investigates the common, shared, and public endeavours that produce landscapes. Chapters address varied concerns across diverse geographies, from wilding practices to extractive landscapes and from decolonizing approaches to tools for co-creation. This volume will appeal to scholars and activists working in environmental humanities, landscape studies, and landscape architecture, and the many disciplines which converge around these topics, including design, geography, anthropology, philosophy, and politics.
