Forest Policy and Economics

'...with the list of useful references, links to internet resources, examples and further information on modelling software along with an accompanying book website (www.cifor.cgiar.org/RealizingFutures), practitioners interested in community participation will find this study a useful resource.'
Forest Policy and Economics

'The authors bring a wealth of knowledge and know-how borne of extensive practical experience of resource management in industrial and developing countries to bear on the challenge of how to enable ordinary people to participate effectively in the planning and decision making necessary for their own developmental futures. The book also provides a much-needed source of proven methodology for professional development assistance practicioners who, despite oceans of goodwill towards those they are trying to help, often lack sufficient skills and the tools necessary. This is a book for everyone concerned with natural resources development for people, by people.'
Ian Bevege, Principal Advisor ACIAR (retired); advisor to international development and research agencies including CGIAR

"A groundbreaking book [that]...employs the 'Marxist brnchf of cultural anthropology' to show how Cherokee ideas about climate, geography, religion, race, sex, and family intertwined with those of European settlers to create a distinct set of cultural codes now recognized as 'Appalachian.'...An especial treat comes at book's end where Prajznerova provides a twenty-one-page transcript of an interview she conducted with Smith." -- Appalachian Heritage

'Contributors to this volume have uncovered several important aspects of the increasingly intimate relationship between political information, its diffusion through media and the reading public.' - Massimiliano Demata, University of Bari, Italy'I certainly learned much from the collection, and the inclusion of pieces on Scandinavia, Italy and the Hadsburg Netherlands is especially welcome, as there are so few English-language studies of these regions in the Seventeeth century...Drawing upon this volume, English-speaking university tutors will now find it possible to lead seminars on early modern news in genuinely comparative pan-European way.' - Mark S.

’The contributors to this timely collection of essays analyse brilliantly the complicated and conflicted on-going process of how multi-ethnic republics of an imploded federation search for symbols of their newly independent nation-states. While Montenegro, Serbia and Croatia can refer to traditional, yet partly contested symbols, Macedonia and Kosovo cannot.’ Stefan Troebst, University of Leipzig, Germany  ’Much has been written on nationalism in Southeastern Europe, yet we know little about popular attitudes towards the envisioned results of nation-building. Strategies of Symbolic Nation-building fills this void. It is a timely book that provides fascinating empirical information and illuminating analyses. It makes a valuable contribution to the debate on why some nation-building efforts succeed, while others fail.’ Ulf Brunnbauer, Institute for East and Southeast European Studies, Regensburg, Germany  ’Thanks to an intelligently and rigorously articulated conceptual and methodological framework, these collected essays make for a genuine comparative project. The volume succeeds in making a valuable contribution to the study of symbols, rituals and other tools of banal nationalism in the contemporary nation-building process of seven states of the Western Balkans.’ Maria Todorova, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA  '... the quality of the research done and the well-designed methodology will certainly place this book high on reading lists, not only for scholars and students interested in studies of South Eastern Europe, but to also among a wider audience focusing on nation-building processes.' Contemporary Issues  '... Strategies of Symbolic Nation-Building in South Eastern Europe is useful reading for anyone interested in the region and especially for scholars studying nation-building in the post-1991 context.'

"the book's true riches. And these are several. First, the range of subjects investigated mirrors the impressive breadth of Zillman's research in media use and gratification. All the major promontories of the mass media-news, sports, entertainment-are explored, as are the outcroppings of violence, pornography, eroticism, and horror. Second, the high overall quality of these essays makes them a good introduction to the scope of contemporary communication research. Especially useful are the essays' literature reviews and bibliographies, which comprise a handy reference to major works in the field. The most significant aspect of the book, however, is methodological; it charts the breadth of Zillman's multidisciplinary approach."&#8212;Communication Research Trends
