Notes
1. I literally picked these books because they are sitting on my desk in front of me as I write this, I could have also cited a very long list of truly excellent work on conservation by many other scholars.
2. It is worth mentioning here that the key architect of the conservation project that I write about in my first book (West Citation2006) has now published his own book-length account of the project that comes to the same conclusions I did regarding the mismatch between external ideas about conservation and local practices (Mack Citation2014).
3. This is a very small slice of the literature connected to the anthropology of conservation and environmental anthropology by indigenous scholars. Much like the monographs mentioned in footnote1, these are books and papers that are literally on my desk right now for a course I’m teaching in the fall.
