Vulnerable to a host of changing conditions in this global era, forests are in peril as never before. New markets in carbon and environmental services attract speculators. In the name of conservation, such speculators attempt to undermine local land control. This volume provides an ethnographic account of conservation politics, particularly the conflict between Western conservation and Mayan ontological ecology.
