[edit]The figure 90 to 95% needs to cite Cole Harris' The Resettlement of British Columbia, specifically, his essay on Small Pox in BC. 128.189.81.148 (talk) 20:18, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Can we see about getting some editing onto this page? It was written more like a grade five assignment than an encyclopaedic article. I've done the best I can towards editing, but it needs a fair amount more work.
Further Information Needed
[edit]1. I propose either categorizing your sections by region or epidemics that impacted the native American population during the European exploration.
2. Cortes and the Aztecs I think it’s better to title this section as simply “The Fall of the Aztecs” since the focus is not necessarily on the Cortes himself but the introduction of the epidemic that wiped out the civilization. Furthermore, specific details on how the disease was delivered and spread should be elaborated. You may want to refer to Jared Diamond’s “Guns, Germs and Steel”
3. The New World Where did the pathogens originate from? More explanation on syphilis is also needed.
4. Fur Trade You should build a closer connection between your example of the fur trade and ecological imperialism. How did the fur trade contribute to the exposure of new diseases among the native population? Further implications of the massive hunting of animals need to be elaborated as well.--Jayoungs (talk) 01:14, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
Need More Information on Cortez and the Aztecs
[edit]Cortez and the Aztecs is a great example of Ecological Imperialism; Although more information should be included for this section of the article. Bicarden (talk) 15:57, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Merge to Ecological Imperialism (book)
[edit]I do not see any significant content in Ecological Imperialism, which goes beyond the actual book. Geysirhead (talk) 19:36, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
- Weak oppose: I see the point, but I think that there are enough references in the examples that go beyond the book; for example, those published after the 2004 second edition. Klbrain (talk) 12:30, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for the reply. There are citations indeed, which are published after 2004. But the online avaible examples do not use this specific term or reference to the actual book. I marked them as irrelevant. I can not check the examples from the online non-available citations. Geysirhead (talk) 13:18, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- I checked the New York Times obit through my library and that does include the line
In groundbreaking feats of interdisciplinary research, he incorporated studies of biology, ecology, geography and other sciences in his efforts to chronicle and understand human events -- work that introduced sweeping explanatory concepts like "the Columbian Exchange" and "ecological imperialism."
. Search a bit further, there's a 2023 book that uses the concept prominently, citing Crosby's work:

- Frame, Mariko Lin (2023). Ecological imperialism, development, and the capitalist world-system : cases from Africa and Asia. Abingdon, Oxon: Routledge. ISBN 9780367204105.
- and further works using it. So, I think that there's enough published to indicate that the concept exists independent of Crosby. Klbrain (talk) 07:41, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
- This book is indeed useful. I'll clean the article and a proper definition to ecological imperialism. Geysirhead (talk) 14:47, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
