  Offers an ethnographic and historical look at the politics of eco-development in the Zimbabwe-Mozambique border zone. This book argues that European colonization in southern Africa has reshaped rural politics and culture, as neo-liberal developers commoditize the lands of African peasants in the name of conservation and economic progress.
