Instead, such formations have been constituted, transformed, and propelled through diverse, site-specific social interactions that complicate and defy divisions between 'global' and 'local.' The book brings the reader into the lives of Chinese scientists, officials, villagers, and expatriate conservationists who were caught up in environmental trends over the past 25 years. Hathaway reveals how global environmentalism has been enacted and altered in China, often with unanticipated effects, such as the rise of indigenous rights, or the reconfiguration of human/animal relationships, fostering what rural villagers refer to as "the revenge of wild elephants."EnvironmentalismChina, SouthwestEnvironmental protectionChina, SouthwestGlobalizationChina, SouthwestChina, SouthwestEnvironmental conditionsagriculture.agroforestry.animals.anthropology.asian history.business development.chinese scientists.conservation.engaging.environmental trends.environmental.expatriate conservationists.global environmentalism.global.globalized social formations.historical.history.human animal relationships.indigenous rights.nature.social science.sustainable businesses.unanticipated effects.EnvironmentalismEnvironmental protectionGlobalization333.7209513SOC002010HIS003000NAT011000bisacshHathaway Michael J1581833MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779745203321Environmental winds3863667UNINA
