Panel on empire and colonization
Dear all,
Another graduate student and I are looking for a third member for a panel on early modern empire, colonization, and the environment. We are both working on the relationships between environment, infrastructure, and the state in the early modern Caribbean, but we'd love to talk with folks on any related topics, including similar processes in a European context!

Hi, I am an early modern specialist and I am working on a project that explores rivers and riparian conflict in 16th-18th century England. I am especially interested in how the crown worked to manage England's rivers, and broker settlements to disputes about how rivers should be exploited and maintained. I can't speak to the Caribbean, but "relationships between environment, infrastructure, and the state" is right up my alley. Could you use a European-centered paper?
