Description
Edited By Klaus Seeland
The startling message of Nature is Culture is that the so-called
virgin forests of the world owe much to their symbiotic relationship
with the indigenous peoples who live in and on the margins of the
forests. Examples of forests are taken from Asia, Africa, and South
America, thus reflecting the global nature of the phenomenon.
Nature is Culture’s conclusions will have far-reaching implications
for all who are concerned with the conservation of forests and
their indigenous human population. This book is published in the
Indigenous Knowledge and Development Series.
