Unmaking Waste: New Histories of Old Things Newman Sarah
Explores the concept of waste from fresh historical, cultural, and geographical perspectives.Garbage is often assumed to be an inevitable part and problem of human existence. Using archaeological finds, historic documents, and ethnographic observations to examine Europe, the United States, and Central America from prehistory to the present, Sarah Newman traces how different ideas about waste took shape in different times and places. But when did people actually come to think of things as trash, as becoming worthless over time or through use, as having an end?Unmaking Waste tackles these questions through a long-term, cross-cultural approach.
Understandings of waste have shaped forms of reuse and Newman examines what is considered waste and how people interact with it, as well as what happens when different perceptions of trash come into contact and conflict.
