Mapping Control - a podcast by Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University
from 2018-06-13T00:00
Cathy Lutz, professor of anthropology, gives us insight into the original military technology: maps. Learn how this ancient form of information sharing can define space, ownership, territory, and, most importantly, resources. Lutz's study of the territory of Guam shows us how the people view their land compared with how the U.S. military views it, and why lines on a paper matter so much.
