The seas and oceans are currently taking centre stage in academic
study and public consciousness. From the plastics littering our
seas, to the role of climate change on ocean currents from unequal
access of marine resources to the treacherous experiences of
seafarers who keep our global economy afloat; now is a crucial time
to examine how we live with the sea. This ambitious book brings
together an interdisciplinary and international cohort of
contributors from within and beyond academia. It offers a range and
diversity of insights unlike previous collections. An 'oceanic
turn' is taking place, with a burgeoning of academic work that
takes seriously the place of seas and oceans in understanding
socio-cultural and political life, past and present. Yet, there is
a significant gap concerning the ways in which we engage with seas
and oceans, with a will to enliven action and evoke change. This
book explores these challenges, offering insights from spatial
planning, architectural design, geography, educational studies,
anthropology and cultural studies. An examination through these
lenses can help us to better understand human relationships with
the seas and oceans, and promote an ethic of care for the future.
