“These welcome trends, of course, do not solve all the questions regarding the nature and modes of operation of local knowledge, and many open questions remain that cannot be reviewed here (see Escobar 1999).”
From Whose knowledge, whose nature? Biodiversity, conservation, and the political ecology of social movements (1998) · cites this paper as Escobar 1999
In the citing paper
“The long-term fate and effect of these approaches is far from clear, and they do not address the contradictions of creating this type of hybrid nature (hybridizing capitalist and non-capitalist nature, see A. Escobar 1999) that arise in contrasting ways of seeing and practicing nature (S.Gudeman 1996).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
