Cultural Ecology is a book category devoted to the reciprocal relationships between human cultures and the environments they inhabit, showing how beliefs, technologies, economies, and social institutions both adapt to ecological conditions and actively reshape landscapes. Works in this area range from ethnographies and archaeological or historical ecologies to comparative and theoretical studies, often featuring case studies of Indigenous, rural, urban, and globalized settings. Common topics include subsistence and resource management, traditional ecological knowledge, settlement and land-use patterns, climate and hazard adaptation, foodways and agriculture, conservation and biodiversity, and the cultural politics of environmental change. Bridging anthropology, geography, archaeology, environmental history, and ecocriticism, the category engages debates on sustainability, resilience, colonial and capitalist transformations, environmental justice, and globalization, offering frameworks for understanding how culture and environment co-evolve.
