Making Peace with Nature

Meer over het boek

Biodiversity in the Korean Demilitarized Zone has thrived due to decades of human absence, revealing intricate connections between ecological dynamics and geopolitical tensions. Eleana J. Kim utilizes ethnographic research with ecologists and locals to explore the interactions among irrigation ponds, migratory birds, and land mines. This examination shifts the concept of peace from a purely human-centric view to a broader understanding that includes biological relationships, highlighting the potential for coexistence amidst the realities of war.
