IN THE FOREST AND FARM PATCHWORK OF THE ROLLING HILLS OF Zambrana-Chacuey, Dominican Republic, people live and work within private landholdings that encompass patches and ribbons of cropland, gardens, orchards, fallows, pastures, and forests. These patches and ribbons form discontinuous parts of larger, more complex landscapes and ecosystems. The integrity of these ecosystems rests in large part on the norms, long term decisions, and daily practices of a number of nested and overlapping groups. Many of the 12,000 people of this region depend on shared resources and on community institutions that broker resource procurement, use, and management of private or public spaces. They also rely on community-based social mediation of environmental quality, landscape pattern, and ecosystem condition for values that transcend physical boundaries across private and public landholdings.
