Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the last decade, cooperative management has emerged as the dominant strategy in Northern regions for resolving resource conflicts and building partnerships in conservation and management between local users and government agencies. This dissertation examines the evolution and performance of several co-management systems governing wildlife in Western and Northwestern Alaska. The aim of this dissertation is to provide a better understanding of the evolution and performance of these joint management institutions by situating them within an analysis of social origins of resource conflict, local repertoires of resistance and contested claims to wild lands and wildlife. This research draws on political ecology as a conceptual framework which focuses attention on the linkages between local resource use patterns and micro-politics, on the one hand, and the larger economic and political institutions and forces that significantly shape those patterns, on the other. The first study, set in the Kotzebue Sound region of Northwest Alaska, examines: 1) the nature and causes of social conflict between Inupiat Eskimo hunters and government managers in the region, and 2) the potential for a nascent co-management regime both to mitigate these conflicts and to provide for more effective and equitable management of the Western Arctic Caribou Herd. In the second case study, I analyze the emergence of new joint management institutions for managing caribou and brown bear developed by agency managers and Yupík Eskimo communities in Western Alaska. After examining the historical the historical origins of resource conflicts which preceded co-management, I discuss how the emergence of new institutional arrangements alters existing power relationships and property regimes in both formal and informal arenas. The final case examines the performance of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta Goose Management Plan, established between government agencies and thirty-five Yupík Eskimo communities in Western Alaska. Analysis focuses on explicating the pattern of resistance and cooperation that emerges in response to the implementation of agency conservation programs in the region, with special attention to the responses of communities adjacent to prime waterfowl migration and nesting habitat"--Leaves ii-iii.

Book Synopsis Network Democracy by : Jared Giesbrecht
Download or read book Network Democracy written by Jared Giesbrecht and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Network Democracy uses the contemporary tools of ecology and network thinking to unearth the ancient, intellectual ruins of traditional conservative thought. Questioning the West’s veneration of freedom, equality, contractual citizenship, economic progress, cosmopolitanism, secular institutionalism, and reason, Jared Giesbrecht illuminates how these ideals fuel violence and insecurity in our high-speed lives. While the modern age witnesses the rise of a violent conservatism in the form of revolutionary movements enacting terror and vengeance for the interventions of the liberal West, this study reveals a different kind of conservatism - one that has emerged in direct conversation with liberal thought. Giesbrecht highlights the need for intermediate institutions and civil enterprises that form relations and traditions independent of the state in order to develop resistance to the insecurity of the liberal age. This book offers not only a poignant critique, but a constructive and peaceable alternative to the violence of both liberalism and reactionary anti-liberalism. Attuned to the new realities of globalization, advanced technology, and social acceleration, Network Democracy is a masterful hybrid of ancient and cutting-edge political philosophy that casts a new light on the values underlying western civilization.

Book Synopsis Landscape Ethnoecology by : Leslie Main Johnson
Download or read book Landscape Ethnoecology written by Leslie Main Johnson and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although anthropologists and cultural geographers have explored "place" in various senses, little cross-cultural examination of "kinds of place," or ecotopes, has been presented from an ethno-ecological perspective. In this volume, indigenous and local understandings of landscape are investigated in order to better understand how human communities relate to their terrestrial and aquatic resources. The contributors go beyond the traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) literature and offer valuable insights on ecology and on land and resources management, emphasizing the perception of landscape above the level of species and their folk classification. Focusing on the ways traditional people perceive and manage land and biotic resources within diverse regional and cultural settings, the contributors address theoretical issues and present case studies from North America, Mexico, Amazonia, tropical Asia, Africa and Europe.
Book Synopsis Conservation by : Monique Borgerhoff Mulder
Download or read book Conservation written by Monique Borgerhoff Mulder and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly 90 percent of the earth's land surface is directly affected by human infrastructure and activities, yet less than 5 percent is legally "protected" for biodiversity conservation--and even most large protected areas have people living inside their boundaries. In all but a small fraction of the earth's land area, then, conservation and people must coexist. Conservation is a resource for all those who aim to reconcile biodiversity with human livelihoods. It traces the historical roots of modern conservation thought and practice, and explores current perspectives from evolutionary and community ecology, conservation biology, anthropology, political ecology, economics, and policy. The authors examine a suite of conservation strategies and perspectives from around the world, highlighting the most innovative and promising avenues for future efforts. Exploring, highlighting, and bridging gaps between the social and natural sciences as applied in the practice of conservation, this book provides a broad, practically oriented view. It is essential reading for anyone involved in the conservation process--from academic conservation biology to the management of protected areas, rural livelihood development to poverty alleviation, and from community-based natural resource management to national and global policymaking.

Book Synopsis Rules of Law and Laws of Ruling by : Franz von Benda-Beckmann
Download or read book Rules of Law and Laws of Ruling written by Franz von Benda-Beckmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering an anthropological perspective, this volume explores the changing relations between law and governance, examining how changes in the structure of governance affect the relative social significance of law within situations of legal pluralism. The authors argue that there has been a re-regulation rather than a de-regulation, propagated by a plurality of regulative authorities and this re-regulation is accompanied by an increasing ideological dominance of rights talk and juridification of conflict. Drawing on insights into such processes, this volume explores the extent to which law is used both as a constitutive legitimation of governance and as the medium through which governance processes take place. Highlighting some of the paradoxes and the unintended consequences of these regulating processes and the ensuing dynamics, Rules of Law and Laws of Ruling will be a valuable resource for researchers and students working in the areas of legal anthropology and governance.
