Combining economics with anthropology to propose practical alternatives, this important and timely volume will attract a wide readership. It is of direct relevance to scholars and researchers in the areas of development economics, anthropology, environmental studies and forestry. It will also be very useful to policy makers, activists and development professionals dealing with issues relating to the environment and indigenous peoples."--BOOK JACKET ER -
