Far less known are the dramatic environmental changes experienced by Eastern Europe, in many ways a terra incognita for environmental historians and anthropologists. <em>A New Ecological Order<\/em> explores, from a historical and ethnographic perspective, the role of state planners, bureaucrats, and experts\u2014engineers, agricultural engineers, geographers, biologists, foresters, and architects\u2014as agents of change in the natural world of Eastern Europe from 1870 to the early twenty-first century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Contributors consider territories engulfed by empires, from the Habsburg to the Ottoman to tsarist Russia; territories belonging to disintegrating empires; and countries in the Balkan Peninsula, Central and Eastern Europe, and Eurasia. Together, they follow a rhetoric of \u201ccorrecting nature,\u201d a desire to exploit the natural environment and put its resources to work for the sake of developing the economies and infrastructures of modern states. They reveal an eagerness among newly established nation-states, after centuries of imperial economic and political impositions, to import scientific knowledge and new technologies from Western Europe that would aid in their economic development, and how those imports and ideas about nature ultimately shaped local projects and policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imre-kertesz-kolleg.uni-jena.de\/publication\/a-new-ecological-order\">https:\/\/www.imre-kertesz-kolleg.uni-jena.de\/publication\/a-new-ecological-order<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":32252,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[8,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32251","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-knjige","category-novosti"],"acf":{"facebook_opis":""},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/historiografija.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/A_New_Ecological_Order.jpg?fit=400%2C600&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":55007,"url":"https:\/\/historiografija.hr\/?p=55007","url_meta":{"origin":32251,"position":0},"title":"The Routledge Handbook of Environmental History","author":"Branimir Jankovi\u0107","date":"18. kolovoza 2026.","format":false,"excerpt":"Edited by Emily O'Gorman, William San Mart\u00edn, Mark Carey and Sandra Swart The Routledge Handbook of Environmental History presents a cutting-edge overview of the dynamic and ever-expanding field of environmental history.
