Knowledge Systems and Natural Resources is a unique collection of case studies from Nepal. It provides rich and incisive insights into critical social processes and deliberative governance. It analyses how knowledge is produced, disseminated and applied in various aspects of natural resource governance in Nepal. The book challenges the dichotomy between traditional and scientific knowledge. It proposes to differentiate among systems of knowledge on the basis of political standing of social actors engaged in natural resource governance. It further proposes that change in governance hinges on how the diverse systems of knowledge come into deliberative interface and to what extent the unequal distribution of power and knowledge resources in society constrain the process of deliberation. 606 $aEthnoscience$zNepal 606 $aNatural resources$xGovernment policy$zNepal 606 $aNatural resources$zNepal$xManagement$xCitizen participation 606 $aTraditional ecological knowledge$zNepal 615 0$aEthnoscience 615 0$aNatural resources$xGovernment policy 615 0$aNatural resources$xManagement$xCitizen participation. 615 0$aTraditional ecological knowledge 676 $a333.709 549 6 701 $aOjha$b Hemant R$01658360 712 02$aInternational Development Research Centre (Canada) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812631503321 996 $aKnowledge systems and natural resources$94202810 997 $aUNINA
