The unquiet woods: ecological change and peasant resistance in the Himalaya
Guha, Ramachandra
The unquiet woods: ecological change and peasant resistance in the Himalaya - Twentieth anniversary ed. - Ranikhet Permanent Black 2010 - xxvii, 250 p.
Popular initiatives to halt deforestation in the Himalaya, such as the Chipko movement, are globally renowned. It is less well known that these movements have a history stretching back more than a hundred years. A proper understanding of this long duration within the forests of submontane North India required the marriage of two scholarly traditions: the sociology of peasant protest and the ecologically oriented study of history.
