Militarized landscapes
As militarized landscapes proliferate globally, it is timely to ask: what exactly constitutes a militarized landscape, and how might we intervene in the scholarship on military-environment relations to better understand their key features. In this introduction to the special theme issue on Militarized Landscapes, we invite readers into these questions. We first define militarized landscapes as socio-ecological landscapes that contribute to or are…
Making Peace with Nature
From war zone to biosphere reserve
The Korean DMZ—at once a war zone, a historical landscape and a living laboratory—offers a compelling example of how scientific fieldwork can alter the definition of place. This article explores how scientists introduced new layers of meaning to the region, thereby contributing to shifts in perspective about the border area and to changes in land-use policies there. As early as the mid 1960s, scientists described the DMZ as a scientifically uniqu…

Sowing War, Reaping Peace
Between 1950 and 1953, the United Nations (UN) undertook two related tasks in Korea: the first was to assist the Republic of Korea in achieving military victory in its conflict with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea; the second was to support postcolonial economic and political reconstruction on the peninsula. In both, the UN promoted the implementation of modern agricultural and resource management practices, directly tying increased dom…

Kathryn Shively Meier. Nature's Civil War
Kathryn Shively Meier asks a simple question in her book Nature's Civil War: Common Soldiers and the Environment in 1862 Virginia: how did the common soldier survive the cesspools that were Union and Confederate camps in the first full year of the Civil War? These men had substandard shelters, pitiful rations, and polluted water; were subjected to medical care that was worse than most afflictions; and lived in crowded, filthy conditions that bred…
Militarized Landscapes
Life in the DMZ
This article describes how the armistice between North and South Korea created an important nature sanctuary. The 1953 agreement to cease hostilities was not crafted with the environment in mind but it called for a 2.5 mile wide demilitarized zone, which would be owned by neither nation. Continuing diplomatic challenges have turned this temporary division into something more permanent. Despite its small size, the area encompasses a wide range of …

The Wilderness of War
IN 1865, THE SCARS on the land wrought by the American Civil War were painfully evident and, for some, took on an ominous countenance. Union Major George Ward Nichols described the war-torn countryside in northern Georgia after William Tecumseh Sherman’s Federal and Joe Johnston’s Confederate armies clashed there in late 1864: “The soil which formerly was devoted to the peaceful labors of the agriculturalist has leaped up, as it were, into frowni…
