Barbed Wire by Reviel Netz
An Ecology of Modernity
A concise history of a simple fencing technology, showing how it moved from taming the open range to structuring warfare and mass confinement, reshaping ecologies and societies in the process. It explains how controlling movement—of animals and people—enabled new regimes of property, governance, and violence, linking ranching, colonial domination, trench warfare, and the rise of camps into a single material narrative of modernity.
