Book Review: Narrating Nature: Wildlife Conservation and Maasai Ways of Knowing

Creators

Description

 In this grounded review I provide a critique to assumed knowledge that inscribes the West as the "Seeing Eye" (even when attempting to decolonize).This review is not only relevant but also timely following the most recent evictions of the Maasai from the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) in Tanzania on conservation grounds.
