Re-claiming place : the Millenium Forest, Borgie, North Sutherland, Scotland

Auteur :
MACKENZIE, A.F.D.

Description :
The A. explores the metaphorical and material significance of this Forest in the context of an emerging movement for the collective purchase of private estates in the crofting areas of Scotland. The Forest is constituted as a site through which a culture of resistance is mobilised and through which an inclusive sense of belonging to place is imagined. The A. connects the poetics of resistance of the Forest with the politics of territorial land claims of the North Sutherland Community Forestry Trust.
