People, Plants, and Justice the Politics of Nature Conservation
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Columbia Univ Pr
- Publish date: 11/01/2000
Description:
In an era of market triumphalism, this book probes the social and environmental consequences of market-linked nature conservation schemes. Rather than supporting a new antimarket orthodoxy, Charles Zerner and colleagues assert that there is no universal entity, "the market". Analysis and remedies must be based on broader considerations of history, culture, and geography in order to establish meaningful and lasting changes in policy and practice.
Expand description

The cases position concerns about biodiversity conservation and resource management within social justice and legal perspectives, providing new insights for students, scholars, policy professionals, and donor/foundations engaged in international conservation and social justice.
