Abstract
Making Conservation Work: Securing Biodiversity in this New Century, edited by Ghazala Shahabuddin & Mahesh Rangarajan. Ranikhet (Uttaranchal): Permanent Black, (298 pages). There is a crisis in Indian nature conservation. For years now community conservation has seemed to many of us to have been consolidating its position as the only ethical and workable model for conserving biodiversity in the developing world. The fortress conservation model whereby protected areas are garrisoned for total exclusion of local people and their extractive activities had been thoroughly critiqued and seemed to have been consigned to a place in history along with colonial game reserves. Yet we are now witnessing a swing back to exclusionary thinking on the part of many conservationists.
