Its premise is that conservation must be informed by the natural histories of organisms together with the hierarchy of scale-related linkages and ecosystem processes. The authors introduce a broad range of overlapping issues and the conservation mechanisms that have been devised to achieve marine conservation goals.

It delves into Africa's rich heritage of endogenous governance systems, examining their historical roots, philosophical foundations, and contemporary relevance. Drawing on rigorous field research, it highlights examples from ancient African civilizations, such as the Oromo Gadaa system, the Manden Charter, and the Issa Xeer, as well as governance practices in the African diaspora, including Maroon communities in Suriname and African traditions in Brazil. The book aims to reclaim and reimagine these indigenous systems as tools for innovation and self-determination in a rapidly changing world. Intended for scholars, policymakers, and those interested in African history and governance, it offers a profound analysis of how Africa's legacy can inspire contemporary governance practices globally.$7Generated by AI. 410 0$aRe-Imagining Public Governance Series 606 $aDecolonization 606 $aPolitical science$zAfrica 615 0$aDecolonization. 615 0$aPolitical science 676 $a320.96 700 $aAli Moussa Iye$01788101 701 $aHoll$b Augustin F.
