Anotácia knihy

Through original research conducted in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland, Places of Possibility shows how community land ownership can open up the political, social, environmental, and economic terrain to more socially just and sustainable possibilities than private ownership.§Reveals how community land ownership is more just and sustainable than private ownership§Features original theoretical insights into ideas of property and nature that disrupt the process of neoliberalisation§Based on original research conducted by the author in the Outer Hebrides, ScotlandTo maximize the efficiencies of land ownership, the market-driven approach of neoliberalism would have it placed entirely in the hands of the private sector. Places of Possibility reveals how community land ownership can open up the political, social, environmental, and economic terrain to far more socially just and sustainable possibilities than the privatization espoused by neoliberalism. Drawing on comprehensive qualitative research carried out in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland, environmental geography specialist A. Fiona D. Mackenzie argues that these possibilities are created through the disruption of prevalent norms of property and nature. The author shows how current land reforms taking place in the islands of the Outer Hebrides are revealed to be places of possibility where neoliberal norms of enclosure and privatization--and of a nature separate from the social--are unsettled with community land ownership. With a careful balance of original theoretical insights and intellectual rigor, Places of Possibility dispels prevailing notions of neoliberal globalization to reveal the rich political possibilities of community land ownership and its place in the twenty-first century world.
