This book argues that humanity's relationship to the land has undergone a fundamental and calamitous change. Marzec reveals how the historical phenomenon known as the 'enclosure movement' has effected not only the ecosystems and the geopolitics of the Twenty-First century, but on how we relate to the earth and conceive of ourselves as human.

ROBERT MARZEC is Associate Professor of English Literature, Postcolonial Studies, Global Studies, and Contemporary Criticism at the State University of New York at Fredonia, USA.
