Carrier and his group of international researchers tackle the
complex factors affecting people's understandings of their
environment-not just the natural environment, but landscapes shaped
by humans, and their social contexts. The authors consider the
impact of local events, such as tourism or environmental protection
regimes, with detailed analyses of local cases. They also evaluate
the large-scale political-economic forces that operate at regional
and global levels, such as policies and bureaucratic requirements
of international agencies and a country's position in global
commodity markets. Their approach encourages policy makers and
researchers to think about their natural and non-natural
environment in novel ways. This book will be an excellent resource
for all concerned with social, cultural and political-economic
aspects of environmental use and conservation, and researchers in
anthropology, geography, and political ecology.
