Spawning Modern Fish

Autor Heather Anne Swanson Editat de K. Sivaramakrishnan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 oct 2022
"Since the mid-nineteenth century, agricultural development and fisheries management in northern Japan have been profoundly shaped by how people within and beyond Japan have compared Hokkaido's landscapes to those of other places, as part of efforts to make the new Japanese nation-state more legibly "modern." In doing so, they engaged in heterodox modes of analogic thinking that reached out to diverse places, including the American West and southern Chile. Today, the comparisons made by Hokkaido fishing industry professionals, scientists, and Ainu indigenous groups between the island's forests, fields, and waters and those of others around the world continue to dramatically affect the region's approaches to environmental management and its physical landscapes.
