CBNRM and similar forms of conservation across southern Africa have long been studied for their potential benefits as domestic policy tools to help improve sustainable development. However, they have often failed to achieve their stated goals. By assessing the initiation, design, implementation and outcomes of CBNRM, the book argues that communities are often unable to attain the degree of empowerment that these forms of resource governance promise. It also considers the impact of climate change on CBNRM programmes, and the responses of international actors involved in their governance. In doing so, the book demonstrates how the power imbalances that are built into the global political economy have ensured that those most marginalized in society are no better off as a result of this new form of resource governance. It will appeal to all those interested in CBNRM, conservation studies and environmental governance in Africa, as well political economy and international relations. Andrew Heffernan is Part-Time Professor in Political Science and International Development at the University of Ottawa, Canada. 410 0$aEnvironmental Politics and Theory,$x2731-6718 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aHuman ecology?Study and teaching 606 $aCultural property?Protection 606 $aHistoric preservation 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aEnvironmental Studies 606 $aConservation and Preservation 610 $aGeography 610 $aArchaeology 610 $aScience 610 $aSocial Science 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aHuman ecology?Study and teaching. 615 0$aCultural property?Protection. 615 0$aHistoric preservation. 615 14$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aEnvironmental Studies. 615 24$aConservation and Preservation. 676 $a320.6 676 $a333.72096881 700 $aHeffernan$b Andrew$01365703 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910728935503321 996 $aThe Global Politics of Local Conservation$93387851 997 $aUNINA
