 In the book, Rethinking Environmentalism: Linking Justice, Sustainability, and Diversity, Redford and Mace (2018) reinforce this interpretation of “biodiversity” as having only a recent history, with confusing definitions, and with little link to human concerns. This is seen as calling for the alternative socio-ecological framing, in which biodiversity conservation is seen as “inextricably linked to a living political discourse” so that a re-cast “biodiversity” can be defined “as including human beings” (2018: 33). Similar arguments are found in Koricheva and Siipi’s (2004) discussion of biodiversity as “a social and political construct”, compared to a purely scientific concept (see also the advocacy, by Meinard, Coq, &amp; Schmid 2019, of “biodiversity practices” rather than “biodiversity”).
