This disorder is alive. It informs. It surprises. (1) I. INTRODUCTION Greening the is currently a hot issue in the agenda of major cities worldwide. Trees are a significant aspect of this issue. Recently, municipalities have invested large sums of money, as well as much bureaucratic and professional effort, into making their cities not only more treefull places, but also places that survey, measure, regulate, and manage their City arborists and foresters provide a long list of ecological reasons to explain why are absolutely and impeccably good. However, the ecological benefits of are not what this article is about. Rather, it explores the transformation of the utilitarian discourse on which focuses on the benefits of and greenery, into a normative discourse whereby are not only considered good, but are also represented as loved by everybody.

Through focusing on the tree, this article examines the materialization of the public/private divide--sketching a picture of the production and management of the urban through its and noting the increased use of for policing. This article attempts to uncover the cultural and historical foundations that rest at the core of the American love of trees movement, and to then tie this movement to the recent increase in indirect spatial policing of city residents. It explores the properties of both from a property perspective and from the perspectives of class, race, and status. I suggest that the deeply rooted historical correlation between and status is the basis for the extremely useful role that perform in new modalities of governance. The love of trees narrative activates and unites subjects, thus forming a collective identity that undermines any other relationship to by defining such a relationship as uncivilized, and at times even criminal. A rivalry between criminals and is thereby established and then transformed into a detailed program of action. …" @default.
