This book examines the history and impact of environmental change
in Madagascar. Drawing on interdisciplinary, ethnographic
methodologies, the book presents local and global perspectives on
current environmental changes and their drivers, from mining to
development and deforestation. The book emphasizes the embeddedness
of Malagasy peoples’ social relationships with the natural
environment, and contrasts this with the way the Malagasy
environment is viewed by international conservation organizations.
Through the presentation of concrete case studies, the contributors
assess the current controversy over the history and nature of human
impact on the environment in Madagascar, and offer innovatory
insights into how these controversies, which plague current policy
making, can be settled.
