How can we reconcile environmental conservation and economic development? This book asks what is entailed in approaching environmental conservation and economic development simultaneously, and how that changes our understanding of conservation and development. It does this by exploring the outcomes of attempts in the last four decades to reconcile conservation with development both conceptually and in practice, and how that has changed our understandings of the two.
