Rainforest Cowboys explores the complexities of Amazonian cattle-raising and the cultural forces driving its expansion. Through extensive fieldwork in Brazil's remote state of Acre, author Jeffrey Hoelle examines the rise of ranching in relation to political economic structures and broader cultural influences from around the world, providing an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the economic and cultural features of deforestation and the tensions between conservation and development in the Amazon.

A must-read op-ed on issues driving #AmazonFires that go deeper than @jairbolsonaro's rhetoric. Jeff Hoelle is a key voice. His book "Rainforest Cowboys" is a vital guide to Amazon cattle culture. More from Jeff in my @natgeo piece:      источник
