Summary:
"Tiny taxonomy" describes the practice of gardening and the implications of strict classification. It seems that as the world around us gains complexity and intricacy, our biological world is trending towards monotony. As our experiences become more and more uniform, our capacity to apprehend transformation and detail diminishes. Using the scale of the individual plant, smallness becomes a design opportunity while classification embraces the aliveness of plants.

Summary:
In "Plant life", Rosetta S. Elkin explores the procedures of afforestation, the large-scale planting of trees in otherwise treeless environments, including grasslands, prairies, and drylands. Elkin reveals that planting a tree can either be one of the ultimate offerings to thriving on this planet, or one of the most extreme perversions of human agency over it. Using(...)

Summary:
In "Plant life", Rosetta S. Elkin explores the procedures of afforestation, the large-scale planting of trees in otherwise treeless environments, including grasslands, prairies, and drylands. Elkin reveals that planting a tree can either be one of the ultimate offerings to thriving on this planet, or one of the most extreme perversions of human agency over it. Using three supracontinental case studies-scientific forestry in the American prairies, colonial control in Africa's Sahelian grasslands, and Chinese efforts to control and administer territory-Elkin explores the political implications of plant life as a tool of environmentalism. By exposing the human tendency to fix or solve environmental matters by exploiting other organisms, this work exposes the relationship between human and plant life, revealing that afforestation is not an ecological act: rather, it is deliberately political and distressingly social.

Sur ces deux objets à la mode, célébrés par tout le monde, y compris par l’industrie du tourisme globalisée, la Promenade plantée de Paris et le High Line Park de Manhattan, on aura tout entendu, sauf peut-être l’essentiel : que ces dispositifs complexes sont générés par la ville elle-même et qu’elle nous communique par là quelque chose de fondamental. C’est la raison pour laquelle nous devons prêter toute notre attention et intelligence à ce qui s’est installé au tournant du siècle à New York et à Paris, convaincus comme nous le sommes, qu’il y a avec ces plateformes – outre les thèmes de la marche et de la déambulation urbaine, de la flânerie et de la dérive, de la ruine et de la rouille, de la trame verte et du spectacle – tout un monde à découvrir. Michael Jakob est professeur de théorie et histoire du paysage à la Haute école du paysage, d'ingénierie et d'architecture (Hepia), à Genève.
