Talk:ethnoscape

RFV discussion: April–May 2015
This gets quite a few hits on Google Books, but the current definition, frankly, looks like one of those grammatically correct but semantically meaningless sentences (think "colourless green ideas sleep furiously") that spambots spit out to get past spam filters. -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 02:22, 20 April 2015 (UTC)


 * That's the hallmark of social science, isn't it? (The most baffling and gratuitous word-coinages I've ever seen, personally, are those of .) "Ethnoscape" seems to have been introduced by Arjun Appadurai (1996?) as part of a set of five -scapes: . "Ethnic landscape" probably captures it really. Equinox ◑ 02:39, 20 April 2015 (UTC)


 * P.S. I've brought back the four "related terms" terms you deleted, but as "coordinate terms", because they are the other four in the Appaduraian (lol) set. If you think that's a particularly bad move then feel free to delete them again. Equinox ◑ 02:45, 20 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Cited, I think. Equinox ◑ 01:51, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
