Description

Explore the complex relationship between human survival and natural resource management in this anthropological study. Published by Routledge, this book examines whether wildlife utilization can serve as a sustainable way to use land. Based on two years of intensive fieldwork in a remote section of the Zambezi valley, the text provides a detailed look at how different groups interact with the environment. Readers will learn about the tension between various stakeholders, including foragers, stream-bank cultivators, and safari operators. The study explores how buffalos and elephants compete with local populations for space and resources. It also analyzes the conflicting rights held by spirit mediums and wildlife committees. This research offers a deep look into the socio-cultural forces that shape wildlife management in Africa and provides insights into natural resource management issues that are relevant to many parts of the world.
