While this site is aimed at community fieldworkers, and so minimizes theory, academic argument, and bibliographic references, some readers, such as students and researchers, need to find those. An excellent site to start your search, is the NRM Changelinks Site:  See:   http://nrm.massey.ac.nz/changelinks/ . Many thanks to Ben Fleming, <[email protected]>, a community worker in Australia, for citing this site.
