The Unquiet Woods: Ecological Change and Peasant Resistance in the Himalaya

Ramachandra Guha

This book spans the gap between two important scholarly traditions - the sociology of peasant protest and the ecologically-oriented study of history. It documents the social and environmental consequences of commercial forestry in the watershed of the Ganges, while focusing wide-ranging peasant struggles in defence of forest rights in this region generally.
