Rich Forests Poor People Listing Rich Forests, Poor People Resource Control and Resistance in Java Author Nancy Lee Peluso Publisher Univ. of California Press Subject Political Ecology Condition Very Good (VG) A Seminal Work in Political Ecology In Rich Forests, Poor People, Nancy Lee Peluso creatively analyzes a perplexing dilemma confronting many parts of Asia: preserving or regenerating forests in densely populated areas where so many people desperately need the land, wood, plants, animals, and other forest resources. Historically and ethnographically detailed, this study brings a creative and venturesome interpretation to problems, making sense of historical domination and opening new vistas of understanding regarding state forestry and changes in state control in Java, Indonesia. "Rich Forests, Poor People combines the intimacy of field-based microstudies of central Javanese villages with a historical narrative that has much to tell us about the institutional roots of the modern Indonesian states." — James R. Rush, Journal of Asian Studies "A pioneering attempt to show how ecological degradation and expropriation must be examined in terms of historical processes, social practice, and symbolic mediation." — Carolyn Trist, Economic Geography Condition Report: Very Good (VG) A clean, well-preserved paperback copy.
