Localising environment: Mustang’s struggle to sustain village autonomy in environmental governance A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Shailendra Bahadur Thakali Lincoln University 2012 ii Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Degree of PhD. Localising environment: Mustang’s struggle to sustain village autonomy in environmental governance by Shailendra B. Thakali Decentralisation of environmental governance is a general trend worldwide and its emergence has largely coincided with a neo-liberal shift in policies for the management of environmental resources. Decentralisation is based on an assumption that the participation of the local people in natural resource management regimes will produce better long term outcomes for communities and their environment. There is little concrete evidence, however, on what transpires when local inhabitants are explicitly included in resource management planning and implementation, and more specifically, why and how the environment becomes their domain of concern in terms of environmental practices and beliefs.
