This article is written as a response and contribution to the dialogue begun by Cal Flyn (2021) on nature’s return to abandoned spaces. In documenting the ruination of Xiji’s cultural landscape, I suggest that a new motivation for exploration and documentation of abandoned environments such as Xiji and Cal Flyn’s case study island of Swona lies in anticipating the needs of future researchers. The digital turn in the social sciences and humanities has produced conditions in which simple digital survey and research tools are capable of documenting, capturing and reproducing entire cultural landscapes with ease. Collaborative data collection is now a driving force behind spatial humanities, enabling the production of navigable time maps, deep maps and spatiotemporal storyboards. This article presents the cultural landscape of Xiji as it existed in 2017, relying on photographs and observations, and tracks the process of its rewilding through accounts from informants and earlier documentation. Although Xiji’s material heritage continues to deteriorate, digital tools have made it possible to reproduce and reclaim it as a dynamic digital space that can be mapped across time.","PeriodicalId":51896,"journal":{"name":"Shima-The International Journal of Research into Island Cultures","volume":"56 6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83387504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shaw","doi":"10.21463/shima.192","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21463/shima.192","url":null,"abstract":"In 1993, recently graduated filmmaker Pierre Creton returned to his rural Normandy roots. There, he has continued to make films alongside his neighbours in the agricultural environment to which he remains intimately tied. His philosophy of film‐ making is summarised in the title of a 2010 book, Cultiver, habiter, filmer – inhabit, cultivate, film. Contrary to more traditional notions of framing, distance and objectivity, here lens‐based media is recognised as an apparatus that takes us into an aleatory, reciprocating process of inhabiting, nurturing and being nourished by a place – its geology, architectures, rhythms and populations, human and nonhuman. The ethics of encounter, ecology and openness is intimately embroiled in Creton’s growing, beekeeping and animal husbandry, as well as his art making. This photo‐essay and accompanying text investigates Creton’s maker‐philosophy in the context of the Orcadian island of North Ronaldsay, famous for its seaweed‐eating sheep, kept at the littoral edges by the island’s stone dykes – themselves a high‐maintenance apparatus. Led by Creton's ideas, through observation and habitation‐with, these sheep become for the artist‐writer more than subjects for the camera; they become guides as to how to inhabit and cultivate the watery margins of the archipelago. They become exemplary artists in their own right.","PeriodicalId":51896,"journal":{"name":"Shima-The International Journal of Research into Island Cultures","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87967338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article argues that there is a tension between these tendencies, as is illustrated by the case of Jeju Island, South Korea. Jeju is a self-governing province and subnational island jurisdiction (SNIJ). Its autonomy is rooted in contested understandings of Jeju natives as an Indigenous people, distinct from the people of the Korean Peninsula. In practice, however, Jeju’s autonomy is used as a tool for containing a special economic zone (SEZ) aimed at attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) to South Korea as a whole. By taking an island studies approach, this paper shows how Jeju’s ostensible Indigenous autonomy has been compromised by the island’s use as an exceptional space crafted in conscious relation to the mainland. Key governance mechanisms on Jeju do not prioritise Indigenous rights. Studies of island political and economic development require careful analysis of how diverse political and economic processes are influenced by islandness itself.","PeriodicalId":51896,"journal":{"name":"Shima-The International Journal of Research into Island Cultures","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72441999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While they are dependencies of the British Crown, they are not part of the United Kingdom and the main islands – Jersey and Guernsey – enjoy a considerable amount of autonomy, as do Guernsey’s subsidiary territories, Sark and Alderney. Jersey’s internal organisation, through a patchwork of administrative territories known as parishes, is unusual for its longevity and does not accord with modern expectations of hierarchical space. It has been argued that for territories to be perceived as places, they need to be maintained and signalled. Iconography is one such form of signalling. Parish iconography in Jersey is addressed predominantly to insiders, encouraging involvement in parish and community. Travelling through the island, iconography, and particularly its manifestation in signage, informs residents as to which parish they are at any time. The varying adoption of iconography reflects parish individualism but has been diffused: once adopted in one parish, it tends to be adopted in others. There are also locations that can – particularly in the context of Jersey - be described as not-quite places, locales whose identities are (at best) emergent. These lack their own iconography and fit poorly into Jersey’s geography of parishes. The efforts put into parish iconography exemplify Jersey islanders’ efforts to establish and maintain identity by cultural assertion and resistance to homogenisation/modernisation. Not just a record of the past, but maintained and renewed, if anything, parish iconography has increased, as Jersey’s parish system has been perceived as threatened.","PeriodicalId":51896,"journal":{"name":"Shima-The International Journal of Research into Island Cultures","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85054120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These perceptions have led them to be recognised as cultural landscapes that merit preservation, maintenance and/or development. This article furthers research on this area by investigating the history and contemporary operation of one such cultural waterway in New Orleans, Bayou St. John, and of the adjacent Lafitte Greenway, built around a former canal route. In particular, the article identifies the process of social and land- and water-scape modifications that have created neighbourhoods around them and the gentrification that has accompanied this. With particular regard to Louisiana as their location, the article also addresses the nature of bayous and the cultural significance of Bayou St. Johns’ name in that regard. Balancing its historical-archival account, the article includes detailed discussion of the contemporary circumstances of the bayou and greenway drawing on close perambulant observation conducted between 2016 and 2022.","PeriodicalId":51896,"journal":{"name":"Shima-The International Journal of Research into Island Cultures","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91271928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
