This Element discusses the presence of ruins in contemporary environmental imagination. Contemporary ruins express a fascination with and a dread of the non-human agencies, while countering the nostalgic dimension of traditional representations of ruins. At the centre of ruins' aesthetic power is the interaction of human and non-human forces.
