Beyond Green
Douglas A. Vakoch | Rajkumar Bera | Sakti Sekhar Dash
Nature / Environmental Conservation & Protection
This open access book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, integrating ecology, culture, and conservation to highlight their deep interconnections. It advocates a holistic model of environmental protection that combines ecological science with Indigenous wisdom and Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK). By examining rituals, festivals, sacred landscapes, storytelling, and cultural practices, this edited volume demonstrates how cultural knowledge contributes to ecological balance and biodiversity conservation. It also explores the connections between sacred landscapes, ecosystems, and cultural identity, challenging conventional conservation models that often overlook human–environment relationships. Ultimately, the work broadens conservation discourse by integrating ecological sustainability with cultural heritage, identity, and community knowledge.
Sakti Sekhar Dash is Fellow of Social Science Research Council at Open Association of Research Society, USA.
Rajkumar Bera is Assistant Professor at Midnapore City College, India.
