Abstract:
It is the instinct for survival that energizes women in the remote mountain terrain into direct action, challenging the collusion between the state and timber grabbers. The unsung- and marginalized women forest dwellers have struggled in the non-violent footsteps of Gandhi, while the state has rested its oars and remained in deep slumber. The best it has offered, so far, is what is commonly called the Forest Rights Act (FRA) of 2006. The strength of the marginalized is in collective action. A space has been created to conserve forest lands in this FRA that supports conservation efforts by comm

SummaryThe environmental impact of the Nigerian economic Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) on the livelihood of the rural dwellers has been little studied. A study was conducted amongst 10 villages in the Olokemeji area of Oyo State, Nigeria using standardized interviews of 200 household heads.The oil boom of the 1970s in Nigeria drove many male heads of households in the study area to the cities, but the collapse of the urban unskilled labour market in the 1980s brought men back to the villages. However, by 1990, renewed dominance of female-headed households in the study area has followed

The Mannan people are traditional forest- dwellers, sustaining their livelihood throughthe collection and utilization of resources from the dense forest, complemented by shifting agriculture practices.Luiz suggests that the term "Mannan" is a distorted amalgamation of "Mannu" (earth) and "Manushyan" (man),signifying their identity as sons of the soil.

Joint Forest Management (JFM) is an effort which involved people to participate for the protection, conservation and rehabilitation of forests whilst safeguarding the rights of forest dwellers. Women and other marginalized sections of the community need to be empowered to ensure their participation in JFM (Aggarwal and Chauhan, 2015). Such programmes while ensuring the conservation of flora and fauna, also provided stability for the agriculture, horticulture, animal husbandry, and local cottage industries and thus, help in all round economic development (Bhatia, 2000).

AbstractThis article discusses the shifts in rights over land of Binjhal Adivasi people in the wake of colonial rule in the ex-zamindari of Borasambar, located in the British Central Provinces in the eventful period from 1860–1926. Oral narratives and documents preserved by Binjhal villagers juxtaposed with archived records of military expeditions, village surveys, administrative letters, and land settlement reports reveal how Binjhal ancestors lost titled land and offices of headmanship, which, over time, impoverished and diminished them in the rural hierarchy.

Abstract:
Women as farmers, livestock keepers, fishers and forest dwellers play vital – often overlooked – roles in natural resources use and management in the Mediterranean region. Women’s exclusion from decision making bodies and unequal access to productive resources represent a missed opportunity in terms of sustainable management of available resources and economic development. Recent studies indicate that if men and women equally participate in the labour market, in the southern Mediterranean region the GDP could rise by 47% over the next decade, meaning an annual benefit from an economic impact o

Abstract:
Deforestation enables the earth soil to run off into sources of water supply due to the absence of tree roots to absorb water thereby causing water pollution. Absence of tree roots further deprives the soil of important nutrients necessary for the growth of new vegetation. Through deforestation, more carbon is released into the atmosphere, climatic changes take place and soil is exposed to rainfalls thus promoting erosions. These are not without serious health implications. The trade of wood products is an obvious source of substantial income for national and local governments as well as tradi

The word Adivasi is made up of two words, Aadi and Vasi. Adi means 'original' and 'vasi' means resident. Tribal refers to the original inhabitants of the earth who live in dense forests, high mountains and inaccessible valleys. Tribals are those who live in remote places in the mountains and forests, away from the civilized world, use the same tribal dialect and mostly eat meat and live in semi-nude condition. The literal meaning of tribal is the caste living in the country since time immemorial.

Building on the idea of transfronterismo, or transborderness, the chapter suggests that the actual border should be seen not just as a site of passage but also as a site for gendered transformation where a politicized transfronteriza identity can emerge.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how Frances Ellen Watkins Harper deployed motherhood—in which the mother's body becomes "two" via her child—to advocate for African American women's equality. It concentrates on two complications in Watkins Harper's poetry which speak to how violent forces dismantle or differently assemble the individual: first, slaves were private possessions, not people; and, second, encumbered or extended by their children's bodies, mothers were forbidden the self-circumscription that constituted liberal selfhood. By reflecting how mothers' bodies and the children attached to those bod
