Dear Bambuseros, Bamboo lovers, specialists, scientist, etc,
There are many years now that I am conducting a study/research (Phd) on ecology and Development through bamboo Area and/or what I call bamboo's space of opinions. As sociologist of Development and as some you know already .
My research is going to end very soon. Despite of several interviews, research-action, direct observation, I feel that I need more input from the people who are passionate, involve and live "within bamboo" on the daily basis. This is why I am calling for interviews.
Here you can filled a simple quantative questionnaire that will already help me a lot, to understand who speaks about bamboo: Sociology Bamboo Questionnaire
To give you an idea, and in order to be transparent, the different axes explored of my research were divided in 3 sections in my thesis Phd dissertation. Here is a very brief presentation of the objects I studied :
1) Socio-historical: The origin of Development; the link between Development, Colonization and Productivism; the construction of the perception of nature within the creation of Development, the imagination of Development challenged by the ecology
2) Field study: Bamboo, from global to local space of opinion (the complexity of actors); Bamboo; Real bamboo and Symbolic bamboo; Bamboo, a representation of socio-economical heterogeneity; Bamboo and Developement(S): an oxymoron ; Bamboo and social economy (example of Martinique); the perception of bamboo from the diverity of areas.
3) Developement and the ecological challenge: From Development to Post-Development; Ideology and Utopia: their influence in our perceptions; global village and local village, the age of network; the eco-village as a choice for development ? ; the community as a choice of post-development and ecological action ? ; between green capitalism and green socialism, the right of a green social economy.
Finally: Challenge of our era: Is the contiguity of paradigms possible in order to face the challenge brought by the destruction of nature.
Hope this will give you an idea of my work and will motivate you for a meeting. Please accept my apology for my limited english expression.
The above can, of course, bring a lot of questions. I will not be able to answer to them by email (can take time), but I will be happy to discuss them on skype or face to face.
Thanks a lot in advance for your time, and I hope to hear from you,
All the best,
All the best,
Xavier
