[edit] Description from course catalog

This course explores crucial material, socio-political, and cultural relationships between the diverse peoples of South Asia and their ecosystems, from the pre-colonial period down to the present. We focus on a series of integrated issues including “forest as frontier and/or home,” “shaping and using the land,” and “meanings and control of water.” Students will write short position papers and a substantial research paper on a relevant topic of her/his individual interest.
