hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: includes dust-jacket. DETAILS: near fine dust-jacket, fresh attractive copy, fine condition black hardcover. LANDER, BRIAN. The king's harvest: a political ecology of China from the first farmers to the first empire. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2021, 1st printing number line ending with 1, xiv, 300pp., . Series: Yale agrarian studies This book is a multidisciplinary study of the ecology of China's early political systems up to the fall of the first empire in 207 BCE. Brian Lander traces the formation of lowland North China's agricultural systems and the transformation of its plains from diverse forestland and steppes to farmland. He argues that the growth of states in ancient China, and elsewhere, was based on their ability to exploit the labor and resources of those who harnessed photosynthetic energy from domesticated plants and animals. Focusing on the state of Qin, Lander amalgamates abundant new scientific, archaeological, and excavated documentary sources to argue that the human domination of the central Yellow River region, and the rest of the planet, was made possible by the development of complex political structures that managed and expanded agroecosystems. - CONTENTS: 1.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Synthesizes multiple perspectives on Asian forests from early history to the near presentForests have histories that need to be told. This examination of wood and woodlands in East and Southeast Asia brings together case studies from China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Sumatra to explore continuities in the history of forest management across these regions as well as the distinctive qualities of human-forest relations within each context. With a general introduction to forest histories in East and Southeast Asia and a multidisciplinary set of authors, The Cultivated Forest constructs alternative lineages of forest knowledge that aim to transcend the frameworks imposed by colonial or national histories. Across these regions, forests were sites of exploitation, contestation, and ritual just as they were in Europe and America. This volume puts studies of Asian forests into conversation with global forest histories.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Modern understandings of forest ecology first emerged in the nineteenth century from forestry schools in Europe and North America. Until recently, Asia was sidelined in histories of wood and woodland. To bring Asia's own cultivation of forests into focus, this volume presents scholarship that considers the different roles that wood and woodlands have played in the histories of East and Southeast Asian regions, promising to transform how we understand the broader histories of Asia and the environment. Considering the types of woodlands found in Asia, from the tropical forests of Sumatra to the boreal forests of Manchuria, contributors explore the range of uses for these sites, the dynamics of wood dispute resolution, and the distinctive institutions that emerged from them. Chapter topics include perspectives on human woodland use and modification based on recent archaeological work; changes in the resolution of water and wood resource claims; and how ethnic minorities have claimed their identity as forest people as a way of protecting their lumber market position. By demonstration that across East and Southeast Asia forests were sites of exploitation, contestation, and ritual in Asia just as they were in Europe and America, this volume places them in conversation with world forest history'--.
