Abstract

[Extract] People are the cause of conservation problems and are fundamental to every conservation solution. Social, economic, and political considerations (hereafter simply "social considerations") are therefore crucial to the success of conservation initiatives (Polasky 2008; Claus et al. 2010). People are also independently important, for moral reasons (Chan and Satterfield, forthcoming) and because the treatment of people affects perceptions of conservation-both individual projects and the larger enterprise. Despite acknowledgement of the importance of such social considerations, conservation planning theory and practice-like much of conservation generally-has been much more focused on ecological considerations than social ones (Knight et al. 2006). Accordingly, much guidance is available for conservation planners on incorporating ecological considerations into conservation planning (see all other chapters in this book), but little guidance exists for incorporating social considerations.
