Under the banner of \u201cforest love,\u201d the colonial government set out to restructure the rhythms and routines of agrarian life, targeting everything from home heating to food preparation. Timber industrialists, meanwhile, channeled Korea\u2019s forest resources into supply chains that grew in tandem with Japan\u2019s imperial sphere. These mechanisms of resource control were only fortified after 1937, when the peninsula and its forests were mobilized for total war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this wide-ranging study David Fedman explores Japanese imperialism through the lens of forest conservation in colonial Korea\u2014a project of environmental rule that outlived the empire itself. Holding up for scrutiny the notion of conservation,&nbsp;<em>Seeds of Control<\/em>&nbsp;examines the roots of Japanese ideas about the Korean landscape, as well as the consequences and aftermath of Japanese approaches to Korea\u2019s \u201cgreenification.\u201d Drawing from sources in Japanese and Korean, Fedman writes colonized lands into Japanese environmental history, revealing a largely untold story of green imperialism in Asia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Fedman, Assistant Professor of history at the University of California, Irvine (USA), discussed his book&nbsp;Seeds of Control: Japan\u2019s Empire of Forestry in Colonial Korea&nbsp;(University [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"episode_type":"audio","audio_file":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2020-06-01-Fedman.mp3","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2020-06-01-Fedman_pod-scaled.jpg","cover_image_id":"1923","duration":"57:36","filesize":"31.53M","filesize_raw":"33061343","date_recorded":"2020-06-01","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":""},"tags":[],"series":[16],"class_list":["post-1921","podcast","type-podcast","status-publish","hentry","series-greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks"],"episode_featured_image":false,"episode_player_image":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2020-06-01-Fedman_pod-scaled.jpg","download_link":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-download\/1921\/david-fedman-seeds-of-control","player_link":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-player\/1921\/david-fedman-seeds-of-control","audio_player":"<a class=\"wp-embedded-audio\" href=\"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-player\/1921\/david-fedman-seeds-of-control\">https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-player\/1921\/david-fedman-seeds-of-control<\/a>","episode_data":{"playerMode":"dark","subscribeUrls":{"apple_podcasts":{"key":"apple_podcasts","url":"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks\/id1664960759","label":"Apple Podcasts","class":"apple_podcasts","icon":"apple-podcasts.png"},"google_podcasts":{"key":"google_podcasts","url":"","label":"Google Podcasts","class":"google_podcasts","icon":"google-podcasts.png"},"rss":{"key":"rss","url":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/feed\/podcast\/greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks\/","label":"RSS","class":"rss","icon":"rss.png"},"spotify":{"key":"spotify","url":"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/0TNTSCl3zRBues4Eqjkwwm","label":"Spotify","class":"spotify","icon":"spotify.png"}},"rssFeedUrl":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/feed\/podcast\/greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks","embedCode":"<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"IeDOjkYzHG\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast\/david-fedman-seeds-of-control\/\">David Fedman &#8211; Seeds of Control<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" src=\"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast\/david-fedman-seeds-of-control\/embed\/#?secret=IeDOjkYzHG\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"&#8220;David Fedman &#8211; Seeds of Control&#8221; &#8212; The Greenhouse Book Talks\" data-secret=\"IeDOjkYzHG\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\"><\/iframe><script>\n\/*!
