Abstract

Since the Rio Convention in 1992, there has been a strong political and ethical imperative to link biodiversity conservation and equity and to promote gender-sensitive policies. However, there has also been a huge gap between these global injunctions and local actions. Mangrove conservation policy is a good illustration of "nature grabbing," which leads to environmental violence. This paper explores the perspectives of the fisherwomen who inhabit the mangroves. It analyzes their struggle to maintain control over mangrove resources and spaces in the face of private or public forces seeking to commodify them in the name of conservation. Based on a corpus of ethnographic data collected over more than 40 years, the paper focuses on the narratives of the oyster fisherwomen in Basse-Casamance, Senegal. It highlights their individual, family, and collective strategies in three time periods: the 1980s, the 2000s and the 020s, demonstrating their resistance over time, defensively or offensively, to the consequences of globalization. The paper shows the ability of the women to preserve their heritage and empower themselves, notably thanks to their self-organization and mutual support. The paper concludes with the scientific uncertainties regarding mangrove dynamics and the conflictual visions on the future of the mangrove socio-ecosystem at diverse scales.

理想的未来:塞内加尔卡萨芒斯 Joola 女渔民的观点
自 1992 年《里约公约》以来,将生物多样性保护与公平挂钩以及促进对性别问 题有敏感认识的政策,在政治和道德上已成为当务之急。然而,这些全球禁令与地方行动之间也存在巨大差距。红树林保护政策就是 "攫取自然 "的一个很好的例子,它导致了环境暴力。本文探讨了居住在红树林中的渔妇的观点。本文分析了面对以保护为名试图将红树林资源和空间商品化的私人或公共力量,她们为保持对红树林资源和空间的控制而进行的斗争。本文以 40 多年来收集的人种学数据为基础,重点关注塞内加尔下卡萨芒斯地区牡蛎渔妇的叙述。本文重点介绍了她们在 20 世纪 80 年代、21 世纪和 20 世纪 20 年代这三个时期的个人、家庭和集体战略,展示了她们长期以来以防御或进攻的方式抵御全球化后果的能力。论文展示了妇女保护其遗产和增强自身能力的能力,这主要归功于她们的自我组织和相互支持。最后,本文介绍了有关红树林动态的科学不确定性,以及对不同规模的红树林社会生态系统未来的冲突性看法。
