ref. B9780271033266Paperback / softback. New. Development studies has not yet found a vocabulary to connect large structural processes to the ways in which people live love and labor. Producing Knowledge Protecting Forests contributes to such a vocabulary through a study of "local knowledge" that exposes the relationship between culture and political economy. Women's and men's daily practices and the meaning they give those practices show the ways in which they are not simply victims of development but active participants creating challenging and negotiating the capitalist world-system on the ground. Rather than viewing local knowledge as something to be uncovered or recovered in the service of development Light Carruyo approaches it as a dynamic process configured and reconfigured at the intersections of structural forces and lived practices. In her ethnographic case study of La Cienaga-a rural community on the edge of an important ecological preserve and national park in the Dominican Republic-Carruyo argues that Dominican economic development has rested its legitimacy on rescuing peasants from their own subsistence practices so that they may serve the nation as "productive citizens" a category that is both racialized and gendered. How have women and men in this community come to know what they know about development and well-being And how based on this knowledge do they engage with development projects and work toward well-being Carruyo illustrates how competing interests in agricultural production tourism and conservation shape collide with and are remade by local practices and logics. paperback

Focusing on developments in British Columbia from 1983 to 1991, when the Social Credit government actively pursued a policy of privatization, this book examines the growth of the voluntary sector there and presents data which track the impact of privatization on services.
