What common factor do mosquito nets in Ghana, the coast guard in New Zealand and the production of unpasteurized cheese in the U.S. have? What links plastic waste in the oceans to the question if meat comes from animals? Providing insight into a new field of research at the interface of cultural and social anthropology, geography and science & technology studies, this book introduces "NatureCultures", thus presenting a concept for a new definition and political situating of the relationship between nature and culture. The contributions by Anna Tsing, Steve Hinchliffe and Uli Beisel as well as other authors invite readers to consider "NatureCultures" to be conceptual space and to explore novel constellations of ecological processes, technical artifacts and more-than-human players.
