This award supports the dissertation research of a student of social forestry at Yale university. The project is to interview smallholder farmers in the Amazon estuary of Brazil on their interactions with the estuarine floodplain over the past 30 years and explain how these interventions have been involved with resource conflict and property relations. The student will seek to explain how human management of streams has transformed the local landscape, how changing labor and property relations and conflicts over resources shaped and were influenced by changes in the physical landscape, and how local people understand their ability to act autonomously in economic and ecological issues. The methods will include a survey and intensive interviews with about 100 households, the population of the local study area, about productive relations over time and resource conflicts. Aerial photographs will be used as an interview aid. A geographic information system database will be developed to analyze trends over time; the distribution of different crops and economically-exploited forest products will be analyzed and related to local events and conflicts. This research is important because it adds to our expertise about the economic behavior of farmers in this area of the world, and will provide valuable information about local people's feelings and understandings of environmental issues. If the deforestation of the Amazon is to be controlled in the future, policies must be based on understanding of what local people do in environmental interactions, and why they do it, information which will be produced by this sort of study. + - +- ±- f8 Û-ª þ + + _ Ûª▓ ÑOh ª' +'ª▒0 Ý + ] $ H l + ¢ ╗ D h + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ R:\WWUSER\TEMPLATE\NORMAL.DOT 9529972 stuart plattner Harriet R.

该奖项支持耶鲁大学社会林业学生的论文研究。 该项目旨在采访巴西亚马逊河口的小农，了解过去 30 年来他们与河口洪泛区的互动，并解释这些干预措施如何涉及资源冲突和财产关系。 学生将试图解释人类对溪流的管理如何改变了当地的景观，不断变化的劳动和财产关系以及资源冲突如何塑造自然景观的变化并受到自然景观变化的影响，以及当地人如何理解他们在经济和生态问题上自主行动的能力。 这些方法将包括对当地研究地区约 100 个家庭的人口进行调查和深入访谈，了解一段时间内的生产关系和资源冲突。 航拍照片将用作采访辅助工具。 将开发一个地理信息系统数据库来分析一段时间内的趋势；将分析不同作物和经济开发林产品的分布，并将其与当地事件和冲突联系起来。 这项研究很重要，因为它增加了我们对世界这一地区农民经济行为的专业知识，并将提供有关当地人对环境问题的感受和理解的宝贵信息。 如果未来要控制亚马逊地区的森林砍伐，政策必须基于对当地人在环境相互作用中所做的事情以及他们这样做的原因的了解，这些信息将由此类研究产生。 + - +- ±- f8 Û-ª þ + + _ Ûª▓ ÑOh ª' +'ª▒0 Ý + ] $ H l + ¢ ╗ D h + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ R:\WWUSER\TEMPLATE\NORMAL.DOT 9529972 Stuart plattner Harriet R.陈奕迅@ ÀR║/O+ @ -+Y+ª) 摘要信息 ( ++++++++++++ ) Û ++++++++++++ ++++++++++++ ++++++++++++ @ +ªWZ++ @Fª# Microsoft Word 6.0 3 f8 Û-ª þ + +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++]ªe =- e ª ; ª ` ` ` ` ` ` p p p p p p p { 1 e Ó Ó Ó Ó Ó Ó Ó - á á ª = ª = ) - T ; { ` Ó Ó Ó Ó Ó { Ó ` ` Ó e Ó Ó Ó Ó ` Ó ` Ó - ╝ Ý ` ` ` Ó - Ó S Ó
