ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT IN MOZAMBIQUE
Book by Munyaradzi Mawere This is an eloquent, engaged and extremely well informed narrative of the environmental and natural resource conservation and management issues in Mozambique. While the topics in this volume are diverse, they are all explicitly designed to move beyond the routinized blame of natural resource mismanagement and environmental degradation on local communities, and to rethink ecosystem destruction, land degradation and natural resource over-exploitation in Africa and beyond. Never losing sight of the major causes of environment and resource mismanagement in Mozambique, the book advances the thesis that environment and resource problems are a result of compound factors such as poor governance, poverty, corruption, low education levels, and disregard of endogenous conservation epistemologies. A combination of all these factors makes the whole terrain of conservation even more complicated than ever; hence the need for urgent action by all social actors. This is a valuable book for environmental conservationists, land resource managers, social ecologists, environmental anthropologists, environmental field workers and technicians, practitioners and students of conservation sciences. |

Hello Chabala, another case study book about one of African countries. Concerning ecosystem destruction, land degradation and natural resource over-exploitation, it has been so chronic problem for a long term in many African countries. It is not just the case of Mozambique, it may be other countries that suffer from such problems too.
Taking a look at other countries' cases truly help domestic problems though it does not perfectly match with basic situations of problems in different countries/our countries.
Thanks for introducing!

Hello Chabala
Most of our current issues roots from mismanagement problems. The problem is that in many cases resources aren't allocated where they are needed and yet still some obtain access to an excess amount of resources. And this resulted in an increase in wastes while the imbalance has sickened our environment. To improve these situations every related factor should be examined so that this mismanagement could be reduced.
Thanks for sharing!
