4 semester hoursUndergraduateLectureNUpath ICusually offered: springtypical days: M/W/ThBostonTraditional
Presents an overview of the meanings associated with "the environment" across different cultures. Analyzes how people and institutions have differently conceptualized the relationship between humans and nature (either through philosophy, science, or religion). Demonstrates the connection between present-day environmental crises and cultural/historical factors. Compares different Asian contexts to other geographic areas. Aims to train students to think creatively about alternative human-environment relations.
