The Conserving of Violence discusses the governance of protected forests in Zimbabwe to spotlight the structural and operational ways in which violent tactics are produced, employed and sustained to promote nature conservation. An important addition to political ecology, environmental justice and the broader environmental humanities.
Tafadzwa Mushonga is a Research Fellow and co-leader of the Environmental Humanities project at the Centre for the Advancement of Scholarship, University of Pretoria. Her research focuses on the political ecology of conservation, with particular attention to people-state relations in the governance of protected forests. Mushonga is the co-editor of two volumes: The Violence of Conservation in Africa: State, Militarization and Alternatives (with Maano Ramutsindela and Frank Matose), and the Environmental Humanities of Extraction in Africa: Poetics and Politics of Exploitation (with James Ogude). Her work engages with themes of environmental justice, state power, and the intersection of conservation, militarisation and environmental governance.
