Shaul Cohen's work in political and cultural geography focuses on the interface between power and the environment and on questions of ethnicity and territory. Theoretical foci in his work are Gramscian hegemony and discourses of nature, and these research streams are largely pursued in relation to tree planting and forest issues. His work on ethnicity and territory concentrates on the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Recent works include:
Cohen, S. Planting Nature: Trees and the Manipulation of Environmental
Stewardship in America. University of California Press, forthcoming.
Cohen, S. and D. Frank. (2001) "Jerusalam and the Riparian Simile." Political Geography.
