Assemblage, archive, and ancestor
This article develops concepts and methods for a more‐than‐human historical geography. It does so in response to the concept of the more‐than‐human archive that has begun to emerge in cultural–historical geography and the environmental humanities. Cultural–historical geographers interested in the more‐than‐human archive have argued that animals, plants, rocks, and other ecological phenomena have important agencies that are overlooked by culturall…
Infrastructure as archive
Exploring the colonial geographies that have shaped Britain, this paper argues that recent debates regarding the ecological status of British rivers must centre colonialism and racial capitalism as the crucial drivers of river decline and thus prioritise developing anticolonial ecological politics. I anchor this argument in the River Severn in southwest Britain, which, until recently, was fragmented by hydraulic infrastructures such as weirs and …
Eutrophicated
This article examines the River Wye in the southwest UK as a political ecology marked by relations of colonial inheritance. A controversial case of contemporary British river pollution, the Wye is suffering from increasingly dramatic eutrophication events, with nutrient pollution from mineral phosphate fertilisers used in industrial agriculture causing algal blooms that destroy the river's ecology. This paper complicates dominant framings of the …
Human Molecular Genetics
Human evolution
In this chapter, the authors consider the people current understanding of the evolutionary past of humans. They also show how it helps the reader to understand aspects of their biology that would otherwise be puzzling or even paradoxical. Some fossils and non-fossilized bones or teeth contain traces of DNA, and analysis of these is currently transforming our understanding of the human past: a technological revolution that has been compared in its…
