Coping with environmental degradation in the tropics: Indigenous strategies to sustainable development (Indonesia).

Coping with environmental degradation in the tropics: Indigenous strategies to sustainable development (Indonesia). - 166 p.

Adviser: Ian Wallace.

Thesis (M.A.)--Carleton University (Canada), 1999.

Defining the predominant cause of tropical deforestation is a major issue of contention in international politics. The present debate revolves around the role of indigenous slash-and-burn agriculture in propagating this destruction. This ancient system of farming has had the misfortune of being one of the most maligned agricultural systems in the world. Misinformed and politically motivated government policies have not been successful in identifying sustainable alternatives for these resource poor slash-and-burn farmers. However, indigenous farmers on the island of West Timor, in eastern Indonesia, have drawn on their intimate knowledge of the local environment and have successfully used indigenous management practices to overcome environmental degradation. The indigenous farmers in Amarasi District have altered their local institutions to tackle their ecological problems. The resulting Amarasi System of agriculture and community development is a blend of politics, economics, religion and <italic> adat</italic> (customary) law. The success of Amarasi lies in the relationship between indigenous forms of land and resource management and the incentives provided for adopting and maintaining sustainable agriculture and practising conservation management techniques.
