SUMMARY:Leopoldina-Workshop "From exploitation to sustainability? The histo
 ry and future of resource depletion in global perspective"
DESCRIPTION:Wissenschaftliche Vorbereitung: Bernd Herrmann ML (Göttingen) u
 nd Christof Mauch (München)The Rachel Carson Center for Environment and Soc
 iety in Munich and the Graduiertenkolleg Interdisziplinäre Umweltgeschichte
  at the University of Göttingen are organizing a workshop dedicated to cult
 ural aspects of human responses to natural resource shortages in comparativ
 e and global perspectives. Cultural factors and paradigms have influenced h
 istorical resource management and continue to play a crucial role today as 
 different world regions and cultural areas attempt to safeguard resources f
 or the future. For the workshop, leading environmental historians from ever
 y continent will be brought together for the first time to discuss the past
  and future of resources, exploitation and sustainability. Central question
 s will include: How do societies throughout history react in the face of di
 minishing vital resources (e.g. water, wood, land, oil, wildlife) or natura
 l goods (such as precious metals)? How are changes perceived, and which rul
 es, practices, and discourses are developed to meet, ignore, or deny such c
 hallenges? The philosophies and paradigms behind technical solutions will a
 lso be considered.
