| Abstract: |
In developing this LATIS we hoped to focus attention on the rural landscape and some of the collaborative and encourage work taking place there. The observations and examples presented here are clearly the tip of the iceberg. We believe, however, that the range of issues and work presented is enticing and challenging by what it suggests- not only work to be studied and expanded, but work to be initiated. If we provoke further interest, thought and action, then our time has been well spent. The American Society of Landscape Architects adopted a Policy on the Rural Landscape in 1985. This policy marked a significant return to the concern for stewardship in the rural landscape that so characterized our profession in its earliest days. Inspired by the policy, we hope this work will accelerate its momentum. |
