In recent years Ugandahasbeen seenas a test bed and model case study for numerous and varied approaches to address complex and connectedconservation and development challenges. This volume reviews and assesses these initiatives, collecting new research and analyses both from emerging scholars and well-established academics in Uganda and around the globe.Approaches coveredrange from community-based conservationto the more recent proliferation of neoliberalised interventions based on markets and payments for ecosystem services. Drawing on insights from political ecology, human geography, institutional economics, and environmental science, the authors explore the challenges of operationalising truly sustainable forms of development in a country whose recent history is characterised by a highlyvolatile governance and development context. They highlight the stakes for vulnerable human populations in relation toof large and growing socioeconomic inequalities, as well as for Uganda’s rich, unique, and globally significant biodiversity. They illustrate the conflicts that occur between competing claims of conservation, agriculture, tourism, and the energy and mining industries. Crucially,the bookdraws out lessons that can be learned from the Ugandan experience for conservation and development practitioners and scholars around the world UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781315200538 ER -
