This is the only way it can contribute to the drastic
transformations needed to come to a truly sustainable model of
development. The good news is that conservation is ready for
revolution. Heated debates about the rise of the Anthropocene and
the current 'sixth extinction' crisis demonstrate an urgent need
and desire to move beyond mainstream approaches. Yet the
conservation community is deeply divided over where to go from
here. Some want to place 'half earth' into protected areas. Others
want to move away from parks to focus on unexpected and 'new'
natures. Many believe conservation requires full integration into
capitalist production processes. Building on a razor-sharp critique
of current conservation proposals and their contradictions, Buscher
and Fletcher argue that the Anthropocene challenge demands
something bigger, better and bolder. Something truly revolutionary.
They propose convivial conservation as the way forward. This
approach goes beyond protected areas and faith in markets to
incorporate the needs of humans and nonhumans within integrated and
just landscapes. Theoretically astute and practically relevant, The
Conservation Revolution offers a manifesto for conservation in the
21st century - a clarion call that cannot be ignored.
