The question of whether or not communities could and should manage
their own resources according to their own custom, knowledge and
technologies is an issue that has been analyzed from divergent
perspectives. Recent academic attempts remark the positive role of
'community' in natural resources conservation; however, local and
indigenous populations have been criticized by anthropological and
historical research, arguing that communities are not as
environmentally-friendly as it has been stated. Either constrained
by socio-economic and political processes or romanticized by
advocates of community-based approaches; this academic work seeks
to answer if is the community's fate to disappear in the context of
natural resources conservation, or under the pressures of current
neo-liberal processes? Or is it possible to enhance the positive
role of communities in the conservation and management of natural
resources. Based on a review of different theoretical perspectives,
Problematizing the Role of Community in Natural Resource Management
assess the role of community in forest conservation using as a case
study the top-down management systems of the Nevado de Toluca
National Park (NTNP).
