The Netherlands is one big river delta. Here, several major European rivers meet and mingle with the North Sea, a confluence that produces beautiful nature and generates enormous economic activity. Since the 20th century, this delta region has undergone drastic changes, many of them engineered by humans. In this book, archival documentaries provide a tool for understanding these transformations from a historical perspective. Essays, interviews, and visual materials blend multiple disciplines and academic discourse with artistic practices, offering a fresh approach to examining the complex relationship between technological interventions, climate change, and everyday life.
