A Question of Semantics: Whose Blue Economy
The discourse of ‘blue economy’ is increasingly prominent in the international relations and policy community, from the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, the Indian Ocean Rim Associati
Environmental and political implications of Vietnam's water vulnerabilities: A multiscale assessment
Vietnam's low‐lying areas of the Lower Mekong Basin are prone to floods, salt water inundation, and riparian competition with upstream neighbours. Vietnam's opening to the global economy, accompanied by industrialization and a rapidly growing population, impose multiscale (global, regional, local) stresses on urban and rural water systems resulting in water contamination and groundwater overdraft. Water vulnerability is a function of both natural…
The bioregion as a communitarian micro-region (and its limitations)
The micro-regional focus of bioregionalism is a small unit of physical space, typically a watershed region. In bioregional discourse, natural systems become metaphors for cultural coherence. However, when we look for laws embedded in the natural world, those that are found do not then reveal themselves as principles which apply to systems of culture. Further, within most individuals, the sense of regional identity spans several scales because our…
Hazards in the Bog-Real and Imaginedxs
A rich body of geographical lore, much of it related to real or imaginary hazards, characterizes perceptions of bog landscapes. Bog bursts, will-o'-the-wisps, carnivorous plants, weird creatures, and perceptions of the "bottomless" bog all play a part in the folklore of the landscapes. Ambiguity about the features of bog landscapes is further heightened by the descriptive terminology employed by tale tellers, who present to us a world inhabited b…
Hazards in the Bog: Real and Imagined
Landscape or Mindscape? Seamus Heaney's Bogs
In the tradition of literary geography, Seamus Heaney's poetical descriptions of bogs are examined in terms of how closely his imagery fits the physical reality of the landscape itself, While studies in vegetational succession and geomorphology mas help to explain the origin and development of bogs, both in Ireland and worldwide, humanistic geography also considers place-creation to be subjective, based on landscape perceptions which take into ac…
