The natural protected area of Mau Forest (Kenya) is characterised by socio-environmental conflicts in which forest management, indigenous claims by Ogiek tribe and political interferences are strictly connected, leading to contra- dictions and tensions in the territory. The aim of this paper is to explore different aspects of the socio-environmental conflicts through the concept of “barriers”: firstly from a methodological and scientific perspective, then related to borders, buffer zones, tree plantations and Community Forest Associations.
L’area protetta della foresta Mau in Kenya è un luogo di conflitti socio-ambientali, in cui gestione della foresta, rivendicazioni del gruppo indigeno Ogiek e interferenze del potere politico si intrecciano dando luogo a configurazioni territoriali contraddittorie e portatrici di tensioni. Questo contributo intende illustrare diversi aspetti dei conflitti socio-ambientali, declinandoli attraverso il concetto di barriere: metodologiche-disciplinari, confini, buffer zones, piantagioni di alberi e Community Forest Associations.

Abstract
The natural protected area of Mau Forest (Kenya) is characterised by socio-environmental conflicts in which forest management, indigenous claims by Ogiek tribe and political interferences are strictly connected, leading to contra- dictions and tensions in the territory. The aim of this paper is to explore different aspects of the socio-environmental conflicts through the concept of “barriers”: firstly from a methodological and scientific perspective, then related to borders, buffer zones, tree plantations and Community Forest Associations.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
