Contested Countryside (with George Monbiot), pt. 2
Description
How does the history of enclosure surface in England today and in Britain's former colonies? How can we de-enclose to create access for all?
In this episode, Joe and Ollie continue last time's conversation with the legendary author and activist George Monbiot, about how does the history of capitalism and colonialism interlink to England's urban and rural spaces.
