    While extensively occurring natural resources play a fundamental role in the survival and recovery of postwar populations, their management is not presently part of the operational priorities in a peace process. Dependence on naturally occurring food, fuel, water, secure locations, and products that can be obtained and sold quickly for dislocated, war-weary populations is a primary approach to postwar livelihoods. The peace process however focuses on the logistical and institutional aspects of security, demobilization, reintegration and humanitarian efforts.

    Natural resource management increasingly plays a pivotal role in the
    transition of post-confl ict societies towards a lasting peace. This role is not
    limited to societies where confl ict has been directly fueled by high-value
    natural resources such as timber or minerals. Unresolved issues surrounding
    land tenure administration can reignite tensions, and the inability of
    government to deliver key services (water, food, shelter, and other resourcedependent
    essentials for life) can destabilize weakened societies that are

    The young man was scared. The city government had instructed him to count the shacks in the settlement. He arrived smartly dressed carrying a briefcase and clipboard with pen in hand and a list of the shacks. His job was to find any new shacks without the official number painted on the door. But he immediately ran into problems. The local residents confronted him, asking what he was doing. Soon a small crowd had gathered. They took him into the community hall, where a meeting was under way. He explained that the city had sent him, but the local people were suspicious.

    This book, essentially an “anarchist history,” is the first-ever examination of the huge literature on state-making whose author evaluates why people would deliberately and reactively remain stateless. Among the strategies employed by the people of Zomia to remain stateless are physical dispersion in rugged terrain; agricultural practices that enhance mobility; pliable ethnic identities; devotion to prophetic, millenarian leaders; and maintenance of a largely oral culture that allows them to reinvent their histories and genealogies as they move between and around states.

    This is the first of a series of consultations on the human rights challenges and dilemmas involved in the
    acquisition and use of land – held individually or collectively - for private or state-owned business and
    economic purposes. The aim of the series of consultations is to develop a framework that leads to an end of
    human rights abuses at any stage of the process – before acquisition, during acquisition, and after operations
    have commenced and, if necessary, relocation and rehabilitation arranged, and compensation paid.
