Description:
This book focuses on the interactions between people, sheep and nature in the run country of Tasmania. It addresses the relationship between production and conservation in natural landscapes grazed by sheep and examines potentially effective pathways to maintain conservation values in a production context that meet the economic needs of wool-growing communities. The book covers environmental geography, disturbance ecology, environmental history, cultural ecology, political ecology, social geography, rural sociology and economic geography.
