- 1. Introduction (5, 000 words)The introduction will contain two key sections: 1) it will begin by setting the scene for this book by establishing the basics of private land conservation and the relevance of Australian research to a global audience, then 2) establish the original contribution of the book by outlining what a human geography perspective provides on the topic that has largely been absent from this literature. 2. Environmental stewardship – the conservation dispositions of amenity landholders (7, 000)This chapter will explore the ways that amenity landholders develop their conservation practices. 4. Locking it up – conservation covenants and the securing of legacy (7, 000 words) Conservation covenants (or easements) are on the rise globally, with The Nature Conservancy in the US now the second largest single landholder behind the US military. Covenants have also been used across Asia, Europe and Africa to secure so-called 'permanent protection' of private land.This chapter captures the rise of covenants and their emerging issues, before exploring how landholders in Australia who have both taken up and considered taking up a covenant have engaged with them. 5. Private land conservation and neoliberal environmental governance (7, 000 words) This Chapter places a particular emphasis on the way that EcoTender shapes and reshapes the interactions between people and ecologies in the conservation process 6. Looking ahead: private land conservation in the Anthropocene1.

Looking ahead: private land conservation in the Anthropocene (5, 000 words) Reflecting on issues and challenges raised, this concluding chapter will centre on the following key questions:• How will property relations and governance processes need to be re-thought in light of the individualization of conservation? What alternative conceptions of property might hold promise for enabling more collective approaches to conservation across landscapes?• What might be the guiding principles for private land conservation in highly modified landscapes under climate change? How might notions of species diversity, abundance and novelty be useful in conceiving of a conservation practice that looks forward and not just backwards to past historical benchmarks?. … (more)
