This book is open access under a CC-BY license. The multiple purposes of nature – livelihood for communities, revenues for states, commodities for companies, and biodiversity for conservationists – have turned environmental governance in Latin America into a highly contested arena. In such a resource-rich region, unequal power relations, conflicting priorities, and trade-offs among multiple goals have led to a myriad of contrasting initiatives that are reshaping social relations and rural territories. This edited collection addresses these tensions by unpacking environmental governance as a complex process of formulating and contesting values, procedures and practices shaping the access, control and use of natural resources. Contributors from various fields address the challenges, limitations, and possibilities for a more sustainable, equal, and fair development. In this book, environmental governance is seen as an overarching concept defining the dynamic and multi-layered repertoire of society-nature interactions, where images of nature and discourses on the use of natural resources are mediated by contextual processes at multiple scales.

Your destiny in Christ depends on what you do with your thought life. Often, the way that seems best to our human mind goes against what God's Word says. Many times believers accept less than what God has promised them because they have not risen above the thoughts of financial lack, poor relationships, or destructive family traits. These negative ideas and thought patterns will lead you down the path of destruction, but there is a way for you to change. Dr. Donald Shorter reveals a simple five-step plan for you to take control of your thoughts and conform them to what God says about you. This process of casting down negative imaginations will enable you to move forward in the call that God has on your life. The circumstances that are holding you back will begin to change as you begin to think differently. Pastor Shorter will help you overcome the things that can paralyze your life. You will be encouraged and motivated to win in life as you read these pages. The truth in them will make you free. -- Casey Treat, Pastor of Christian Faith Center, Seattle, WA

In the wake of European expansion, disease outbreaks in the New World caused the greatest loss of life known to history. Post-contact Native American inhabitants succumbed in staggering numbers to maladies such as smallpox, measles, influenza, and typhus, against which they had no immunity. A collection of case studies by historians, geographers, and anthropologists, "Secret Judgments of God" discusses how diseases with Old World origins devastated vulnerable native populations throughout Spanish America. In their preface to the paperback edition, the editors discuss the ongoing, often heated debate about contact population history.
