Tropical forests as frontiers and zones of refuge: The case of Ranomafana in eastern Madagascar
Tropical forests are often problematic for states. They have been described as both zones of refuge and frontiers and their ‘unruliness’ has justified state intervention throughout the centuries. Currently, forest areas and their governance are impacted by transnational conservation and extractive frontiers. Yet, I ask whether remote mountainous forestlands still provide a zone of refuge free of state control. If they do, what is the relationship…
Negotiating the legitimacy of conservation at mining frontiers: Evidence from Madagascar and the DR Congo
Political ecologists are increasingly interested in the dynamics of power and authority where mining and conservation converge. We contribute to this emerging literature by applying an 'actor-oriented' approach to explore the creation of protected areas in African mining frontiers. Concretely, we look at how 'multiple-use' protected areas have been layered on top of mining frontiers in eastern DRC and northern Madagascar. Both of these mining fro…
The intersections of mining and neoliberal conservation
Biodiversity conservation and mining activities are increasingly overlapping throughout the world. While conservation has conventionally been seen as a strategy to oppose the negative environmental impacts of extractivism, the experiences of local communities especially in the Global South reveal similar dynamics in the ways in which mining and conservation actors seek to gain control over land and resources, often resulting in land grabbing. Fur…
