Full project title: Of Trees, Deer, Humans and the Spaces Between: Orientating towards the future bygiving voice to the disparate groups and individuals involved in Scotland's 'deerquestion': A creative practice research response.This research will look at how creative non-fiction, fiction and ecopoetic strategies would represent, relate and interact in the arena of tensions and commonalities between themany individuals and groups involved in one of Scotland's most intractable environmentalissues, 'the deer question'. This quandary - how best and to what extent to control deernumbers in Scotland - is not a new one, and is at the heart of many current land issues with their ensuing economic, environmental and social implications. In this presentmoment when policies are being driven by the urgent need to mitigate climate change,there is a drive to plant trees, and with deer being the most prolific wild herbivore in Scotland, and a threat to woodland generation, 'the deer question' has become a red-hotissue.The research will examine how creative interventions might translate, reflect and impactexisting practices and processes in this polemic arena of land management with regard to 'the deer question'. This project will investigate the potential of diverse creative writinggenres to self-reflexively explore the tensions, boundaries and intersections of the differentparties involved. The main research question asks: Against a backdrop of unfolding ecological crisis what overarching whole, coherent or otherwise, can emerge from thisdivisive, fragmented and hotly-debated issue by taking on a plurality of perspectives?

完整项目名称：树木，鹿，人类和空间之间：面向未来的声音，以不同的群体和个人参与苏格兰的“鹿的问题”：一个创造性的实践研究的反应。这项研究将着眼于如何创造性的非小说，小说和生态诗意的策略将代表，在苏格兰最棘手的环境问题之一所涉及的任何个人和团体之间的紧张关系和共性的竞技场中联系和互动，鹿的问题这种困境--如何最好地控制苏格兰的鹿数量，以及控制到什么程度--并不是一个新问题，而是当前许多土地问题的核心，以及随之而来的经济、环境和社会影响。在当前，缓解气候变化的迫切需要推动政策，植树成为一种动力，而鹿是苏格兰最多产的野生食草动物，并且对林地的生成构成威胁，“鹿问题”已成为一个热门话题。研究将探讨创造性干预措施如何转化，反映和影响现有的做法和进程，在这个论战竞技场的土地管理方面的“鹿的问题”。这个项目将调查不同的创作体裁的潜力，以自我反思的方式探索不同参与方的紧张关系，边界和交叉点。主要的研究问题是：在生态危机不断发展的背景下，什么样的整体，连贯的或以其他方式，可以从这个分裂的，支离破碎的和激烈争论的问题，通过采取多元化的观点出现？
