A reflection on the challenges of doing environmental history research in the diverse region of the Himalayas.
Using the example of mountains in South America, this article illustrates how different ways of thinking about scale can shape the questions we ask.
The challenges for mountain fieldwork today are different than those faced by researchers a century ago. This article looks at differences in funding, surveying practices, and academic networks and debate.
This issue of RCC Perspectives uses mountains as a common denominator around which to discuss overarching challenges of environmental history: challenges relating not only to mountain landscapes, but also to broader questions of sources, methods, cross-cultural research, project scale, and audience. Each author discusses some of their most intriguing discoveries, resulting in a brief and diverse collection of environmental history snapshots.
