Wetlandia!: Analytics for a Global Terraqueous Humanities
Wetlandia! reframes the wetland as an analytic constituted by far more than nature. Situated in terraqueous terrains where land meets rivers, oceans, and other bodies of water, wetlands serve as homes to a rich collection of flora, fauna, and people. At the intersection of this physical and social geography, we will rethink and reclaim the wetland from a conservationist and statist paradigm, to a political, social, economic, and historical frame.
