Omschrijving
Exploring a topic of vital and ongoing importance, Traditional Forest Knowledge examines the history, current status and trends in the development and application of traditional forest knowledge by local and indigenous communities worldwide.
From the reviews:
“Parrotta (US Forest Service) and Trosper (Univ. of British Columbia, Canada) have compiled and edited an interesting collection of papers that comprehensively review ‘traditional forest-related knowledge.’ … the book will have the most interest to upper-level undergraduates and beyond who have a focus on international forestry, traditional forestry practices, and issues of human/environmental interactions. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals.” (J. L. Rhoades, Choice, Vol. 49 (10), June, 2012)
“Traditional Forest-Related-Knowledge … is an encyclopedic treatment of the topic with something for everyone. … the elements through which they are compared are carefully chosen to reveal the core of TFRK. This is an enlightening treatment of the topic. The chapter on ethics is similarly thoughtful and enlightening. … This chapter should be read by anyone doing research with indigenous people, or, for that matter, any field researcher at all.” (Louise Fortmann, International Journal of the Commons, Vol. 6 (2), August, 2012)
