Samenvatting

This book sets out a vision for developing North Australia based on a culturally appropriate and ecologically sustainable land sector economy, supporting both Indigenous responsibilities and community aspirations, as well as enhancing enterprise opportunities for society as a whole.





Key Features:

  • Provides clear and authoritative recommendations for managing fire in ecological and social contexts
  • Authors are all international leaders in their fields and include not only academics but also leaders of Indigenous communities
  • Explains Indigenous cultural and knowledge systems to a degree that has rarely been accessible to lay and academic readers outside specialized disciplines like Anthropology
  • Responds to growing need for new approaches to managing human-ecological systems that are in greater sympathy with Australia’s natural environments/climate, and value the knowledge of Indigenous people
  • Timely for scholarly and interest groups intervention, as the Australian government is again looking to ‘develop the north'
  • Sustainable Land Sector Development in Northern Australia sets out a vision for developing North Australia based on a culturally appropriate and ecologically sustainable land sector economy. This vision supports both Indigenous cultural responsibilities and aspirations, as well as enhancing enterprise opportunities for society as a whole. In the past, well-meaning if often misguided policy agendas have failed - and continue to fail - North Australians. This book helps breach that gap by acknowledging and harnessing Indigenous cultural strengths and knowledge systems for looking after the country and its people, as part of a smart, novel and diversified ecosystem services economy.
