Based on an ethnographic account of subsistence use of Amazonian
forests by Wapishana people in Guyana, Edges, Frontiers, Fringes
examines the social, cultural and behavioral bases for
sustainability and resilience in indigenous resource use.
Developing an original framework for holistic analysis, it
demonstrates that flexible interplay among multiple modes of
environmental understanding and decision-making allows the
Wapishana to navigate socio-ecological complexity successfully in
ways that reconcile short-term material needs with long-term
maintenance and enhancement of the resource base.
