A1 - New social, political, environmental and landscape problems
"The growing consumption of energy has injured or destroyed the resilience of local, regional and global ecosystems.
The emergence of a global environmental unbalance involves the search for another type of development : sustainable development.
Traditional local identities suffered from the transformation of local vernacular cultures into more or less global mass cultures : people have lost the intuitive knowledge they had of their home landscape and the way it had to be managed.
A more general crisis of identities grew out of the increased mobility of persons and information : there is a general deterritorialization of modern populations, with a multiplicity of faraway links and less local solidarities.
Many people react to this threat of identitarian dissolution into a more or less homogeneous environment by building communitarian responses : they try to anchor a renewed form of local identity into the traditional landscapes they wish to preserve in spite of globalization."
