The crucible of innovation in wildlife and habitat conservation is
in southern Africa where it has co-evolved with decolonization,
political transformation and the rise of development, ownership,
management and livelihood debates. Charting this innovation, early
chapters deal with the traditional 'fines and fences' conservation
that occurred in the colonial and early post-independence period,
with subsequent sections focussing on the experimentation and
innovation that occurred on private and communal land as a result
of the break from these traditional methods. The final section
deals with more recent innovations in the sector, focussing on
building and strengthening the relationships between parks and
society. Importantly, the book provides a data-rich summary of
experimentation with more inclusive models of conservation in terms
of ecological, social, political and economic indicators. Published
