| description | Monocultures characterise today’s forests. What is the connection here with forestry science and its mapping methods? How did the public react to the conversion of forests? Why are so many forests monocultures today? In the 19th century, forestry academies were established across Europe, where the sustainable management of forests was taught and standardised. In this book, Lisa Cronjäger traces the technique of forest taxation – both in the contexts of its origins since the 18th century and in its teaching and application, right through to the international circulation of the maps and the resulting conflicts. The author combines perspectives from media and cultural studies as well as environmental and science history to examine the extent to which forest taxation maps established monocultures as something desirable. A key focus of her study lies on the imaging methods used by surveyors to process environmental data, as well as on the legal reforms, privatisations and protest practices that accompanied landscape transformations in Prussia, Saxony, Switzerland, Portugal and other regions. Ultimately, the cyclical principle of deforestation and replanting visualised on the maps is in continuity with the current use of forests as compensation areas and CO₂ sinks. This study of the history of knowledge thus offers points of connection to the environmental and climate crisis of the present day. |
