Reviews

'[T]he volume is valuable on many levels. One would hope that development agencies, environmental organizations, those proponents of western-style land management systems, forestry agencies, transnational corporations and those concerned with indigenous peoples would read and profit from the way that politics, economics, law and natural sciences are combined in this volume.' Journal of Legal Pluralism, 43 (1999).
