- Summary:
- This book examines where land, territories and the human body are sites of simultaneous trauma and the ways in which different forms of ecological degradation unmoor us. Starting from solastalgia, a form of mental distress caused by environmental change and one's feelings of inability to prevent or reverse land sickness, the Land Body Ecologies collective present reflections from people living through environmental changes, and propose cultural rights and practices as a mechanism for survival, revival and healing.
