Synopsis

Bringing together a broad range of case studies from across Europe, this book explores practices implemented to promote the sustainable use of environmental resources from the 16th Century until the turn of the 21st Century.

How and with what results environmental resources were managed in the past is one of the main topics of debate in rural and environmental history and archaeology. This book explores the dialogue between these fields, drawing upon new studies and comparisons between 'grammars', concepts and research practices from both fields to promote an interdisciplinary approach to the study of the environment. The book provides a comprehensive overview and comparison of the different practices of environmental resources management in Europe from the early modern period to contemporaneity, shedding light on a range of sustainability issues including land management, water supply, farming systems and forestry. The interdisciplinary contributions in this volume provide original insight based on an analysis of written and material sources examining a range of different regions, including northern Italy, Slovenia, northern Spain, southern Spain, south-western France, and northern Romania.

This book will be of interest to students and scholars of history and archaeology, as well as to those in research fields related to anthropology, sociology, environmental and agricultural sciences, and economics.
