Outdoor life after the green waves? New contradictions of body ecologyThe practical relation to nature, which we call ”friluftsliv”, has not developed in a linear process, but in historical waves. This is true for Denmark and Germany, but also – as recent research has shown – for Sweden and Scotland. What happened, however, after the third green wave from the 1960/80s? The article studies the new configuration of our concept of nature, its practical background in handling space and place, in running, movement landscapes and body ecology. What become visible are nature’s fractal (anti-) geometry and a new humanism, which does not – as classical humanism did – place the “individual” against “nature”, but sees the human as fellow human in connection with the fellow world.
