Against the internationally dominant approach that regards Africa as being a state of 'deficiency', this book demonstrates, based on fieldwork concerning various natural resources (e.g. wildlife, forests, fruit, fish and land) as well as many famous protected areas, that African people are collectively and actively trying to solve the environmental problems they are facing by strategically utilising both indigenous means and new extrinsic opportunities. Meanwhile, it also becomes clear that wildlife conservation still continues to cause local societies a multitude of problems, and the 'potentials' of local people and societies are existing but unnoticed and suppressed by powerful outsiders, and therefore, remaining informal and invisible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Toshio Meguro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9956552852\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789956552856\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Langaa RPCID\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 374\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.77d","brand":"Toshio Meguro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44042623877375,"sku":"9789956552856","price":73.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ce151ee5-0c15-494e-83af-fe2b6344954e.jpg?v=1684962581","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/african-potentials-for-wildlife-conservation-toshio-meguro-9789956552856","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
