Environmental Humanities in the New Himalayas: Symbiotic
Indigeneity, Commoning, Sustainability showcases how the
eco-geological creativity of the earth is integrally woven into the
landforms, cultures, and cosmovisions of modern Himalayan
communities. Unique in scope, this book features case studies from
Bhutan, Assam, Sikkim, Tibet, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sino-Indian
borderlands, many of which are documented by authors from
indigenous Himalayan communities. It explores three environmental
characteristics of modern Himalayas: the anthropogenic, the
indigenous, and the animist. Focusing on the sentient relations of
human-, animal-, and spirit-worlds with the earth in different
parts of the Himalayas, the authors present the complex meanings of
indigeneity, commoning and sustainability in the Anthropocene. In
doing so, they show the vital role that indigenous stories and
perspectives play in building new regional and planetary
environmental ethics for a sustainable future. Drawing on a wide
range of expert contributions from the natural sciences, social
sciences, and humanist disciplines, this book will be of great
interest to students and scholars of environmental humanities,
religion and ecology, indigenous knowledge and sustainable
development more broadly.
