Abstract

The key aim of this article is to reflect on the potential impacts of various types of historical counter accounts, used by civil society to promote resistance and conservation. For this purpose, the High Ross Dam controversy (in the 1970s) represents an important and unique historical case of social–political biodiversity conservation action, by civil society. A detailed case study is presented that includes an analysis of civil society opposition through counter accounts. Technical and non-technical counter accounts of resistance by civil society are investigated, using Escobar's theoretical framework. Examples of historical counter accounts serve as outstanding precedents of civil society activism for biodiversity against business and political agendas.
保护生物多样性的多元化对策:高罗斯大坝争议案例
本文的主要目的是反思民间社会用于促进抵制和保护的各类历史反述的潜在影响。为此,高罗斯大坝争议(20 世纪 70 年代)是民间社会开展社会政治生物多样性保护行动的一个重要而独特的历史案例。本文介绍了一个详细的案例研究,其中包括通过反陈述分析民间社会的反对意见。利用埃斯科瓦尔的理论框架,对民间社会抵制的技术性和非技术性反陈述进行了研究。历史上的反陈述案例是民间社会为生物多样性积极反对商业和政治议程的杰出先例。
