EIHS Workshop: Environmental Approaches to Colonial and Indigenous History
This panel will explore how human interactions with the environment informed power relations between colonizers and indigenous peoples across three continents in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. What roles did indigenous people play in the development of colonial environmental networks? How did colonial discourses about the environment inform indigenous strategies for self-determination?
