This volume examines landscapes that have been cleared of
inhabitants--for economic, environmental, or socio-political
reasons, by choice or by force--and the social impacts of clearance
on their populations. Using cases from five continents, and ranging
from prehistoric, through colonial and post-colonial times, the
contributors show landscapes as meaningful points of contestation
when populations abandon them or are exiled from them. Acts of
resistance and revitalization are also explored, demonstrating the
social and political meaning of specific landscapes to individuals,
groups, and nations, and how they help shape cultural identity and
ideology.Sponsored by the World Archaeological Congress
