| Summary: |
This book offers a theoretical and practical exploration of the beach as space and place (i.e. territoriality) through three disciplinary lenses (Political Science, Geography, Art), utilizing the lens of territoriality and field-based participant cartographic mapping to understand better the ways in which the developed shoreline in Florida is territorialized. The book approaches the complex topic of territoriality on Florida's beaches from two novel but related methods: participatory mapping/cartography and performance art. Both methods involve participants interacting with, perceiving, and ultimately representing feelings about a place. One method captures those feelings through the medium of the cartographic product (or a map), while the other leads to a set of symbols (flags), performance (actions in place) and visceral record (photography, sound, and journaling). Readers will gain insight into the role of political systems, ideological climates, local culture (including diverse cultures throughout the Florida state territory), and environmental history and challenges in shaping territoriality. The book will be of interest to a wide array of scholars working in coastal and land use planning topics at the intersection of geography, political science and art, including urban planners, land managers, and associated stakeholders dealing with ongoing tensions between private and public property rights on and near beaches. |
