Chapter 1Introduction

Drenthen, Martin; Keulartz, Jozef

Pages: 1 –14

[As much as the differences between perspectives can divide environmental philosophers across the globe, they can also be a source of fruitful exchange; the different approaches can learn from each other and challenge each other’s blind spots. On the one hand, the New World idea of a pristine...

Extracting Culture or Injecting Nature? Rewilding in Transatlantic Perspective

Hall, Marcus

Pages: 17 –35

[In this chapter, Marcus Hall argues that ecological (or environmental) restoration, as the project of repairing damaged ecosystems, is now a worldwide pursuit that poses a range of practical and theoretical challenges. Not only do restorers seek a keen biological knowledge of every ecosystem...

Restoration and Authenticity Revisited

Hourdequin, Marion; Havlick, David G.

Pages: 37 –51

[In this chapter, Marion Hourdequin and David Havlick focus on one of the central worries raised in relation to ecological restoration: the problem of authenticity. Robert Elliot, for example, has argued that restoration ‘fakes nature’. On this view, restoration is like art forgery: it...

Conceiving the Earth Itself as Our Garden

Cameron, W. S. K.

Scotney, Robert

Knights, Paul

Pages: 93 –108

[In this chapter, Paul Knights argues that there are reasons for a critical reassessment of two current movements in UK conservation – ‘creative conservation’ and ‘rewilding’ – that emerge from an examination of the ontological, axiological and ethical status of restored cultural ecosystems. He...

Enduring Nature

Deliège, Glenn

Pages: 109 –124

[In this chapter, Glenn Deliège tracks the paradoxical role that “nature” plays as an evaluative criterion in New World restoration practices. On first sight “nature”, understood as “that what has not been manipulated by human hand”, can no longer play any meaningful role in Old World...

Seeking Nature’s Permission

Holland, Alan

Pages: 125 –137

[In this chapter, Alan Holland discusses the reclamation of the ‘lost’ gardens of Heligan in Cornwall (UK), hailed by the London Times as “the garden restoration of the century”. Holland shows that this description poses something of a conservation conundrum. For exactly those processes that...

Green Managerialism and the Erosion of Meaning

James, Simon P.

Pages: 139 –150

[In this chapter, Simon P. James argues that nature can be harmed, degraded, destroyed, but also restored, preserved or in some other way looked after, but that this also holds true of nature’s meanings. It is in many cases possible to look after or ‘cultivate’ the political, religious, personal,...

The Wolf Is Coming! Emplacing a Predator That Is Not (Yet) There

Drenthen, Martin

Pages: 153 –174

[In this chapter, Martin Drenthen discusses debates about the possible return of the wolf to parts of Europe where they were absent for over 150 years. He argues that the return of wolves challenges perceived notions, not only about what nature is, but also about human’s place within nature....
