dc.description.abstractEn | Transnational networks of donors, NGOs, private foundations, and companies shape conservation policymaking inMozambique. In a context of neoliberal conservation that frames a reduction of the role of the state, policymakingis not the sole purpose of state agencies and thus questions state sovereignty. This article addresses state agencyin a conservation philanthropy project in central Mozambique. The Gorongosa Restoration Project (GRP) is apublic-private partnership between the state and the Carr Foundation, an American philanthropic organisation, forthe management of Gorongosa National Park. The Frelimo state—at the head of the country ever since independencein 1975—is still rather weak in Gorongosa region, an opposition stronghold. State sovereignty is reformulated,for GRP is greatly externally driven and performs state functions such as the running of a state-owned nationalpark. But in spite of weak state capacities, state sovereignty remains at the forefront: central and local state arekey for daily conservation management, and the philanthropic apparatus is an opportunity for the state to furtherits local presence and control in the hinterland. | |
