Through comprehensive multi-sited ethnographic studies, it explores the diverse ways in which people in this region connect with their surroundings, shedding light on the complex interplay between politics, history, and ecological perspectives. The author delves deep into the intricate tapestry of human-environment relationships, examining how these interactions vary and sometimes collide. These conflicting ecologies are rooted in the intricate connections individuals have with the non-human realm, encompassing a vast spectrum of elements such as forests, rivers, land, natural resources, animals, and spirits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author argues that the understanding and analysis of peoples ecologies are fundamentally shaped by the interplay of relationality and power. By integrating a range of theoretical approaches, the book offers a profound exploration of the environmental transformation occurring in Indonesia, as well as the social exclusion it entails. It also highlights the limitations of universalistic concepts of human-environment relations, urging a more nuanced and context-specific understanding of these complex interconnections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book appeals to a wide range of academics and scholars interested in political ecology, environmental anthropology, sustainability sciences, political sciences, development studies, human geography, human ecology, Southeast Asian studies, and Asian studies.
