Hunting reducing wildlife populations, driving more vulnerable species local regional extinction, threatening biodiversity. This paper uses commodity chain approach explore bushmeat demonstrate why an interdisciplinary required if be sustainable in future.
Abstract We studied links between human malnutrition and wild meat availability within the Rainforest Biotic Zone in central Africa. distinguished two distinct hunted mammalian diversity distributions, one rainforest areas (Deep Diversity, DRD) containing taxa of lower hunting sustainability, other northern rainforest-savanna mosaic, with species greater potential (Marginal MRD). Wild availability, assessed by standing crop biomass, was MRD than DRD areas. Predicted bushmeat extraction also...

It then explores more detail projection approach subsequently proposes rate-of-return provide new insights into these issues. Finally,...
This article presents a critical assessment and examination of the underlying justice norms present in Norwegian–Ethiopian Reducing Emissions from Deforestation Forest Degradation (REDD+) partnership across international, national, local scales. Based on multiscalar framework discourse analysis, we explore extent to which conceptions align or diverge between scales REDD+ discourse. The findings indicate dominance “utilitarian–neoliberal” nexus at policy level, underpinning cost-effective...

This chapter draws on the shared reflections and tensions from collaborative research in an experience sampling method project exploring use of visual, particularly photography, investigating everyday life experiences. The was conducted among work colleagues at a higher education institution. When group reflected process potential interpretations data, ethical issues became apparent. In this chapter, line with critical perspective book, we take opportunity to reflect upon these issues,...
