Abstract
This paper provides perspectives on the processes and consequences of large-scale ecotourism development for environmental ends in Bozbük and Kazıklı, two small forest communities on Turkey's West Southern Aegean coast. We employ a green grab framework to link various actors' operations and various scales operating in communities. To unpack these treatments, we asked two questions: 1) How do various actors negotiate green grabbing to subordinate indigenous land claims to their interests? 2) How do various scales arrange green grabbing to mediate indigenous land claims? In addition to these questions, we try to understand how green grabs are motivated by political networks, labor-capital mobilization, and environmental regulations. This model provides more specific treatments of economy and policy orientations on various scales and more detailed empirical examinations of actor orientations in resource transformations.
