Paperback. Condizione: New. In 1933 the United States government created the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and gave it jurisdiction over a demarcated region - the watershed of the Tennessee. The TVA was authorised to develop the resources in the Valley and promote the welfare of its residents. The TVA pursued these goals by constructing three large-scale operations, referred as the river, land and power machines. The TVA also invested in social projects, including support for housing and tourist industries in the region. The Mechanized Landscape: Statecraft and Environment in the Tennessee Valley examines this comprehensive effort as a form of statecraft - the art of government persuasion and diplomacy - manifested through environmental transformation. It follows the TVA's physical transformations and its investment in infrastructural power - programs that extended the state's capacity to reach even the most remote residents. The product of this process, the mechanized landscape, is a testament to the TVA's complex approach to democracy, its racial and middle-class biases, and its technical and managerial acumen. By bringing together original photography, newly created maps, and text, this book offers a well-researched, visually compelling appraisal of the TVA's plans and their implementation. Rather than following a linear textual narrative, readers are invited to explore the complexity of the mechanized landscape through multiple media.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Tennessee Valley Authority was the largest single agency created under the auspices of the New Deal legislation. Until 1933, when the project was initiated, the Tennessee Valley was known romantically as "a region of untapped potential" and, less romantically, as one of the most impoverished and isolated areas of the country. The TVA was responsible for three large scale environmental projects the river, land, and power machines but the project also had social, even utopian, goals. In service to the latter, the TVA put together a cadre of regional planners, architects and landscape architects that Avigail Sachs calls the "atelier TVA." These professionals contributed to the design of the system of multi-purpose dams, arranged visitors centers and scenic routes, built housing and communities (although both were segregated) and instigated a regional recreation industry. In addition to its planning and design history audience, this volume will be of interest to environmental historians and historians of the Progressive Era. The Tennessee Valley Authority was the largest agency created under the auspices of the New Deal. The TVA was responsible for three large scale environmental projects - the river, land, and power machines - but the project also had social goals. This volume will be of interest to environmental historians and historians of the Progressive Era. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
