| description | This paper addresses the evolution of nature conceptions in the last two decades as a response to the global ecological crisis and the parallel redefinition of landscape and society-environment relations it implies. Contemporary scholars now increasingly emphasize that natural conditions are not separate from social processes. Thinking nature and human-environment interdependencies in these novel terms involved in return a fundamental reconsideration and reorganization of the physical and imagined landscapes, as well as a redefinition of the relations between nature and its human and non-human components. We then further proceed to explain current conservation disputes based on these conceptual refashioning and illustrate how social conflicts develop out of the diversity of nowadays co-existing nature understandings. Former perspectives may collide with institutional efforts of urban nature restoration which results in increased human-biodiversity encounters. Similarly, in the context of environmental conservation there can be fierce local resistance to the implementation of environmental policies as coexisting discourses about nature may give conflicting protection prescriptions for different kinds of biodiversity. In conclusion we discuss how conservation and governance models could be better informed by the clarification of nature representations and values. We further argue for the critical analysis of the societal processes shaping conflicting nature conceptions, by considering the interactive dynamics between all human and non-human stakeholders of the system, as research priorities to resolve potential social-ecological conflicts. |
