From bioregions to heterotopias : alternative pathways to territorialising the environment
(2017) p.165-184- Abstract

It argues that the various ways that the environment is being spatialised today have implicit normative assumptions about desirable futures and the governance of human/nature relations. A number of academics have adopted a pathways approach to address or manage the diversity of ideas about the environment, nature, sustainability and sustainable development. The identified pathways reveal the alternative territories that are defined by different actors and agendas. (Less)
