Boundaries and pathways: Indigenous identity, ancestral domain, and forest use in Palawan, the Philippines. - 409 p.

Chair: Louise P. Fortmann.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 2000.

Indigenous people, their allies, and the states they have challenged have centered their contests over rights and resources on the issue of boundaries—boundaries of territory and boundaries of identity. In the case of one Philippine indigenous community and its struggle for state recognition of its ancestral domain, however, this study finds that boundaries are less important than “pathways,” i.e., flows across boundaries. If boundaries represent social relations of inclusion and exclusion from group membership and access to resources, pathways indicate social relations of access and exchange. This dissertation examines how local responses to changing macro political-economic factors, in particular migration, markets, and state interventions, transform these boundary and pathway relations, and thereby resource use patterns and the productivity and diversity of the landscapes they shape.

520 $a Indigenous people, their allies, and the states they have challenged have centered their contests over rights and resources on the issue of boundaries—boundaries of territory and boundaries of identity. In the case of one Philippine indigenous community and its struggle for state recognition of its ancestral domain, however, this study finds that boundaries are less important than “pathways,” i.e., flows across boundaries. If boundaries represent social relations of inclusion and exclusion from group membership and access to resources, pathways indicate social relations of access and exchange. This dissertation examines how local responses to changing macro political-economic factors, in particular migration, markets, and state interventions, transform these boundary and pathway relations, and thereby resource use patterns and the productivity and diversity of the landscapes they shape.
520 $a Pressures from markets and migrants are commodifying and partially privatizing land, intensifying the commodification of the historic trade in forest products, and deepening debt. Together these trends are stimulating economic differentiation, largely along ethnic lines. In response to these pressures and to the opportunities provided by the state's boundary-making initiatives and by pathway alliances with non-governmental organizations, Batak and Tagbanua “tribal” people are making strategic use of a newly <italic>pan</italic>tribal “indigenous” identity to gain support for their resource claims.
520 $a Yet, the people's expectations that state-recognized boundaries would establish indigenous control over ancestral territory and resources have not been fulfilled. As a consequence, the ancestral domains policy did not initially modify previous trends in resource use: over-exploitation of forest products, clustered location of swiddens and shortened fallows, and increased area under permanent cultivation and tree crops. The likely environmental impacts include loss of biodiversity, continuing declines in yields to swidden agriculture and forest harvesting, and a slower, but more permanent, rate of forest conversion.
520 $a I argue that in order for real change to occur, boundary-based policy instruments must also transform pathway relations of access to resources, particularly political and financial capital. Nonetheless, the process of struggle to obtain state certification and to defend boundaries has catalyzed the formation of a shared identity, supralocal alliances, and, thereby, the local capacity for collective action.
