Book Synopsis User Groups as Producers in Participatory Afforestation Strategies by : Michael M. Cernea
Download or read book User Groups as Producers in Participatory Afforestation Strategies written by Michael M. Cernea and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper contains a discussion of policy options and operational strategies for improving social forestry programs. The analysis of the types of social forestry approaches reveals that many programs are not designed around well identified social actors, and neglect to ensure clear benefit distribution arrangements and incentives. Participatory social forestry strategies must aim at engaging the rural users of fuelwood into organized activities for producing and managing forests. The author argues that an evolutionary shift from simple foraging and gathering fuelwood in naturally grown forests to cultivating trees for fuelwood is necessary. Part one of the study discusses the general social prerequisites for reforestation programs. It focuses on land tenure variables in forestry, particularly under regimes of common property over land. Part two of the study broadens the analysis from communities, as one type of group, to several other types of social groups and units of social organization. The author argues that each development strategy must be formulated around a clearly identified social actor, interested in its outcome and capable to carry it out. However, it is noted that not each kind of group is suitable for each and all development actions.

Book Synopsis Political Ecology Across Spaces, Scales, and Social Groups by : Susan Paulson
Download or read book Political Ecology Across Spaces, Scales, and Social Groups written by Susan Paulson and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2004-11-03 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental issues have become increasingly prominent in local struggles, national debates, and international policies. In response, scholars are paying more attention to conventional politics and to more broadly defined relations of power and difference in the interactions between human groups and their biophysical environments. Such issues are at the heart of the relatively new interdisciplinary field of political ecology, forged at the intersection of political economy and cultural ecology. This volume provides a toolkit of vital concepts and a set of research models and analytic frameworks for researchers at all levels. The two opening chapters trace rich traditions of thought and practice that inform current approaches to political ecology. They point to the entangled relationship between humans, politics, economies, and environments at the dawn of the twenty-first century and address challenges that scholars face in navigating the blurring boundaries among relevant fields of enquiry. The twelve case studies that follow demonstrate ways that culture and politics serve to mediate human-environmental relationships in specific ecological and geographical contexts. Taken together, they describe uses of and conflicts over resources including land, water, soil, trees, biodiversity, money, knowledge, and information; they exemplify wide-ranging ecological settings including deserts, coasts, rainforests, high mountains, and modern cities; and they explore sites located around the world, from Canada to Tonga and cyberspace.

Download or read book Sustaining Forests written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Bank's Forests Strategy, adopted in October 2002, charts a path for the Bank's proactive engagement in the sector to help attain the goal of poverty reduction without jeopardizing the environmental values intrinsic to sustainability. This strategy replaces the Bank's 1991 Forestry Strategy, and was developed on the basis of the findings of an independent review of the 1991 strategy and a two-year consultative process with development partners and stakeholders around the world. The revised strategy, Sustaining Forests, is built on three guiding pillars: harnessing the potential of forests to reduce poverty, integrating forests into sustainable economic development, and protecting global forest values. Recognizing the key role forests play in contributing to the livelihoods of people living in extreme poverty, government and local ownership of forest policies and interventions are emphasized along with the development of appropriate institutions to ensure good governance and the mainstreaming of forests into national development planning. The strategy also aims to support ecologically, socially and economically sound management of production forests by ensuring good management practices through application of safeguard procedures and independent monitoring and certification. Implementation of the strategy will center on building and strengthening partnerships with the private sector, non-governmental organizations, and other donor agencies to promote better forest conservation and management at country and global levels.
