Conservation and Mobile Indigenous Peoples - Displacement, Forced Settlement and Sustainable Development

The second edition of this remarkable volume updates the immense advances in policy and soft international law with regards to the rights of mobile indigenous peoples in conservation.

The contributors to this book examine the interface between conservation and indigenous communities who are forced to move or settle elsewhere to accommodate environmental policies and biodiversity concerns. The case studies investigate successful and not so successful community-managed projects in Africa, the Middle East, South and SouthEastern Asia, Australia and Latin America.
