This book explores conservation practices on private land, based on
research conducted with landholders in the hinterlands of
Melbourne, Australia. It examines how conservation is pursued as an
intimate interaction between people and ecologies, suggesting that
local ecologies are lively participants in this process, rather
than simply the object of conservation, and that landholders
develop their ideas of environmental stewardship through this
interaction. The book also explores the consequences of private
property as a form of spatial organisation for conservation
practice; the role of formative interactions with ecologies in
producing durable experiential knowledge; how the possibilities for
contemporary conservation practice are shaped by historical
landscape modification; and how landholders engage with
conservation covenants and payment schemes as part of their
conservation practice. The authors conclude with ideas on how goals
and approaches to private land conservation might be reframed amid
calls for just social and ecological outcomes in an era of rapid
environmental change.
