Symbiotic Wisdom: Exploring Ethnoecological Paradigms within Indigenous Environmental Law Narratives

This book bridges the gaps between ethnoecological, legal frameworks, political systems, and global ideologies to create a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities surrounding environmental sustainability. While discussions on environmental issues often focus on scientific and spatial aspects, this book aims to highlight the significance of environmental laws in shaping our approach to environmental sustainability. By examining the intersection of neoliberalism, international and national legal and political frameworks, and other influential factors, the book aims to uncover how these elements collectively impact our perception of environmental challenges and influence our ability to implement effective solutions.
This book is for a wide-ranging audience, academics, and researchers: scholars in the fields of law, anthropology, environmental studies, sociology, and political science will find this book a valuable resource for understanding the interdisciplinary nature of environmental challenges, policymakers and activists: policymakers seeking evidence-based solutions and activists advocating for sustainable practices will gain insights into the legal, cultural, and political dynamics that shape environmental policies, global citizens: anyone concerned about the future of our planet and interested in the unique perspectives and experiences of indigenous communities and the environmental laws worldwide will find this book enlightening and thought-provoking. It is a pioneering work that not only illuminates the critical issues surrounding environmental sustainability but also offers a path forward by emphasizing the importance of environmental laws in shaping our approach to these challenges. This book serves as a call to action, urging us to embrace a more comprehensive and inclusive perspective in our quest for a sustainable future.
