Introduction:
Mia Siscawati, PhD, Researcher at the Sajogyo Institute, Indonesia & Associate Lecturer at the Department of Anthropology, University of Indonesia.
This talk will examine the participation of the progressive academic forestry scholars in the community forestry movement in Indonesia, particularly during the "New Order" era and the early period of the Post-New Order. As part of the wider social movements in Indonesia, the community forestry movement facilitated networks and moments of social and political possibilities for “community forestry” to operate as a set of alternative ideas to the dominant paradigm of state-controlled “scientific forestry”. Mia Siscawati will examine how the collective actions of progressive academic scholars challenged authorities and promoted alternative concepts, departing from the conservative ways of other groups of intellectuals, such as the Indonesian Association of Muslim Intellectuals.
