Everyday life in a magnificent landscape: Making sense of the nature/culture dichotomy in the mountains of Jämtland, Sweden
Although the nature/culture dichotomy has been extensively criticized by scholars, it remains pervasive to our conception of the world. Discourses of nature as a pristine milieu and of culture as a realm of human dominance not only impact cognition, but also the local practices of those involved daily in such contested areas. In this study of the mountainous area of the Jämtland County, Sweden, we report on the ways local stakeholders make sense …
Landscape care paradoxes: Swedish landscape care arrangements in a European context
National parks and environmental justice: Comparing access rights and ideological legacies in three countries
National parks are often places where people have previously lived and worked--they have been formed by a combination of natural and human processes that embody an identifiable history of cultural and political values. Conservation of protected areas is primarily about how we perceive such landscapes, how we place differential values on different landscape components, and who gets to decide on these values. Thus, conservation has been and still i…

Indigenous Medicine and Primary Health Care: The Importance of Lay Knowledge and Use of Medicinal Plants in Rural South Africa
Local resource use, nature conservation and tourism in Mkuze wetlands, South Africa: A complex weave of dependence and conflict
Geografisk Tidsskrift, Danish Journal of Geography 105(1):43–55, 2005Competition over natural resources is a complex phenomenon. This is explored through a case study in the Mkuze Wetlands, South Africa, where fibrous plants are important to local women who produce craftwork for the growing tourist market. The tourist industry encourages this, but simultaneously promotes the wetlands as ‘a wilderness untouched by man’. Conservation authorities fe…
Landscape(s) in Transition: An Environmental History of a Village in North-east Botswana
Environmental change in Africa is often associated with processes of land exploitation and degradation caused by human agents. However, recent studies have demonstrated how earlier assumptions about the causes and effects of environmental change in some cases have been misleading and simplistic. This paper explores changes during the last century in the abundance and distribution of such natural resources as grazing, browse, firewood and edible f…
Changes in Landscape or in Interpretation? Reflections Based on the Environmental and Socio-economic History of a Village in NE Botswana
In semi-arid Africa, environmental change continues to be debated, focusing particularly on the status and significance of land degradation and on local versus scientific knowledge claims. This paper suggests an approach for using different types of data sources, and for bringing together understandings of ecosystem dynamics and of people's interaction with the environment, and thereby achieving 'closure' in a highly contested terrain. The enviro…
