Abstract

This book offers multidisciplinary perspectives on renewable economies in the Arctic and how these are being supported scientifically, economically, socially, and politically by Arctic states. The economic development of the Arctic region is witnessing new, innovative trends which hold promise for the sustainable development of the region. This book discusses the emerging forms of renewable economies to understand where intellectual and technological innovations are being made. It draws on the expertise of scholars from across the Arctic and provides the reader with a foundation of knowledge to identify the unique challenges of the region and explore opportunities to unlock the immense potential of renewable resources to boost the region's economy. This book offers a holistic Arctic perspective against the backdrop of prevailing social, economic, and climatic challenges. With critical insights on the economic state of play and the role of renewable resources in the development of the Arctic region, this book will be a vital point of reference for Arctic scholars, communities, and policy makers.

Abstract

Im städtischen Raum existieren zahlreiche Formen von Natur, die auf verschiedene Weise wahrgenommen und bewertet werden. Ausgehend von dieser Überlegung untersucht Katharina Winter den Einfluss unterschiedlicher Naturverständnisse auf den Umgang mit temporären Nutzungen innerstädtischer Brachflächen: Von welcher Natur ist die Rede, wenn verschiedene Akteure Flächennutzungsentscheidungen diskutieren? Welches ist die wünschenswerte Natur - und für wen ist sie wünschenswert? Am Beispiel dreier Berliner Fallstudien - einem Gemeinschaftsgarten, einem Zeltplatz und einem Wagendorf - werden die Bandbreite und der Einfluss der Bewertungen, Bedeutungen und Vorstellungen von Natur herausgearbeitet. »Der klar strukturierte Aufbau, die detailliert beschriebenen Methoden und nachvollziehbaren Argumentationen machen Katharina Winters Dissertation besonders für die wissenschaftlich-theoretische Diskussion der Mensch-Umwelt-Beziehungen wichtig. Die Fallstudien und Zitate aus den Interviews veranschaulichen die Naturauffassungen und tragen zu einem besseren Verständnis der komplexen theoretischen Auffassungen bei.« Birte Jung, Raumforschung Raumordnung, 74 (2016) »Katharina Winter hat mit ihrer Arbeit deutlich gemacht, dass die Frage nach Zwischennutzungen weit über die zeitlich begrenzte und deshalb auch sachlich/thematisch, kulturell und sozial beschränkte Frage hinausgeht, wie man eine Brache in der Stadt sinnvoll nutzt.« Detlef Baum, www.socialnet.de, 23.04.2015 Besprochen in: Fraunhofer IRB, 3 (2015) Stadt + Grün, 3 (2015) ORLIS, 6 (2015) Stadt und Raum, 3 (2015)

Abstract

Working with nature - and not against it - is a global trend in coastal management. This ethnography of coastal protection follows the increasingly popular approach of "soft" protection to the Aotearoa New Zealand coast. Friederike Gesing analyses a political controversy over hard and soft protection measures, and introduces a growing community of practice involved in projects of working with nature. Dune restoration volunteers, coastal management experts, surfer-scientists, and Maori conservationists are engaged in projects ranging from do-it-yourself erosion control, to the reconstruction of native nature, and soft engineering "in concert with natural processes". With soft protection, Gesing argues, we can witness a new sociotechnical imaginary in the making.
