Reimagining Landscapes: From Mines to Memories

In this episode of Urban Nature, Sheila Jasanoff delves into the intricate relationship between science, society, and the natural world. She challenges the conventional view that science merely mirrors nature, arguing instead that scientific knowledge is shaped by human mediation, representation, and power dynamics. Through an exploration of how societal choices influence scientific practices and technological developments, Jasanoff urges a deeper examination of how science interacts not only with nature but also with the fabric of social order.
