• W2037601801 abstract "Reviewed by: Integrating Agriculture, Conservation and Ecotourism: Societal Influences ed. by W. Bruce Campbell and Silvia López Ortíz Robert Hearne Integrating Agriculture, Conservation and Ecotourism: Societal Influences. Edited by W. Bruce Campbell and Silvia López Ortíz. New York: Springer, 2012. xix + 280 pp. References, illustrations, tables, maps, index. $209 cloth. As W. Bruce Campbell and Silvia López Ortíz’s foreword points out, the ecology of food systems is highly intertwined with the political, economic, and social determinants of agriculture. This volume addresses key societal influences on agroecology. Four chapters deal with (1) experiential education, (2) international agricultural research, (3) certification programs, and (4) water policy. The work is the second volume of a series of edited compilations of chapters entitled Issues in Agroecology—Present Status and Future Prospectus. The series is ambitious, and this volume presents lengthy chapters that have little cohesion. The volume’s second and third chapters are its best contributions. Shelly Feldman and Stephon Biggs’s second chapter presents an overview of the paradigm shifts that have formed the debates concerning international agricultural development. The authors provide an excellent historical review and defend that current understanding of the role of agriculture in international development depends upon the understanding of these debates. Similarly Cornelia Butler-Flora, Carmen Bain, and Caleb Call’s chapter presents an excellent review of product certification and its impact on sustainable agriculture. Certification standards—either sponsored by civil society organizations, firms, or nations—have provided consumers with information in order to provide incentive to maintain sustainable production. This chapter discusses the variety of standards and their goals. The authors assess the impact of these standards. Although the scholars have praise for the Forest Stewardship Councils certification program, they also suggest that increases in certified acreage do not automatically imply overall improvements in forest management. Jose Manuel Navarrete, Antonio Augusto Rossotto Ioris, and Julian Granados’s chapter on water sustainability and politics provides an interesting example of the limitations of agroecology as a point of view for analysis. Although the title promises examples from Latin America, only one case study, from Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, is presented. The chapter begins with a review of an agroecological perspective of water management. But the Yucatan case study has very little to do with agroecology. The narrative about economic and political priorities and managing industrial effluents, and the conclusion lamenting the absence of public discourse in water management, is only of tangential interest to agroecologists. The volume’s initial and longest chapter provides a review of experiential education in agroecology in university coursework. This chapter has 12 coauthors, over 100 pages, and should be more concise. Unfortunately, the authors restrict their discussion of experiential learning to credit classes, ignoring university outreach, extension, and internships. This chapter discusses a number of university classes that feature experiential learning, and contains the volume’s only reference to the North American Great Plains. Agroecology remains an important field of analysis, and university libraries should have edited volumes that present current issues and debates. However, I find this particular volume to address issues somewhat removed from agroecology. It is noteworthy that a volume entitled Integrating Agriculture, Conservation and Ecotourism contains practically zero reference to ecotourism. I would think that more condensed versions of these chapters would be valuable contributions to a more general edited volume.
