Abstract Novel landscapes, landscapes altered by humans but not actively managed by humans, have come to represent the resiliency of nature to thrive in the context of otherwise overwhelming losses of biodiversity. While novel landscapes may contribute much needed ecological value among declining habitats, discourses about novel ecosystems within landscape architecture have focused primarily on their normative categorization, emergence and performance. Such framings overlook how these landscapes exist as capitalist ruins among economic neglect and abandonment. This focus risks reproducing the same economic and political structures that initially produced the conditions for novel landscapes to emerge. Bringing science and technology studies and feminist care ethics into conversation with practices of landscape architecture, I consider how novel ecologies might be better understood as relational landscapes with distinct and co-constituted histories, memories and timelines. Framing novelty through relational ontologies, I form a theoretical framework for a more radical notion of care ethics rooted in an attention to and responsibility for the uneven ways that human-dominated action has impacted historically overlooked landscapes.

从小说到关系：一种关注关系景观的方法

摘要 新景观，即被人类改变但未被人类积极管理的景观，已经开始代表自然在生物多样性以其他方式遭受巨大损失的背景下能够茁壮成长的弹性。虽然新景观可能在衰退的栖息地中贡献急需的生态价值，但关于景观建筑中新生态系统的讨论主要集中在它们的规范分类、出现和表现上。这种框架忽视了这些景观如何作为资本主义废墟存在于经济忽视和遗弃中。这种关注可能会重现最初为新景观的出现创造条件的经济和政治结构。将科学技术研究和女性主义关怀伦理与景观设计实践相结合，我考虑如何将新生态更好地理解为具有独特和共同构成的历史、记忆和时间线的关系景观。通过关系本体构建新颖性，我为更激进的护理伦理概念形成了一个理论框架，该概念植根于对人类主导的行动影响历史上被忽视的景观的不平衡方式的关注和责任。
