The term "lifescape" refers in this study to the complexity of the spatial, emotional and ethical dimensions of the relationship between landscape, livestock, farming and rural communities. As discussed in Chapter 3, the mass slaughter, often of healthy animals taken out under the contiguous cull, "dangerous contact" rationales, or simply misdiagnosis, was all the more horrific because of its being out of place and out of time. In this chapter we consider the concept of lifescape and offer a framework to explore the lifescape changes enforced by FMD.
