Abstract

This chapter explores the relationship between two emergent and related areas of interdisciplinary scholarship: forest land-use legacy (LUL) research and Critical Physical Geography (CPG). We review the peer-reviewed literature on LULs, provide a focused analysis of studies exploring LUL effects in forest ecosystems, and explore the relevance of this research to CPG. Specifically, we analyze the use of biophysical and human data in forest LUL research and the presence of intellectual tenets of CPG, namely, transdisciplinarity, reflexivity, and power and justice. The chapter concludes with a reflection on how adoption of a CPG approach can inform future research on forest LULs.
