Focusing on the political economy of governance, this project investigates the lived experiences of environmental protection and conservation through an ethnographic study of Uganda's Mount Elgon National Park. Informed by environmental anthropology, political anthropology and political ecology, and the interdisciplinary lens of African Studies, the work considers the tactics and logics of rule used by state authorities to claim and control spaces of environmental protection. It evaluates the impact of these modes of governance on the livelihood strategies of people residing in and near protected zones as well as bureaucratic norms, including state sanctioned violence.Addressing the perspective of rangers, residents, government officials, and conservation authorities, environmental governance is examined across scales, with close attention to local, regional, and global power dynamics in conservation and natural resource management. This case study of Mount Elgon National Park provides insight into the expressions and experiences of environmental protection by state actors.Centering on policies and rules, governing authorities, and community members, it homes in on the points of friction and resistance that emerge as environmental21protection is put into practice in designated spaces of environmental management. This work traces how long-term, cyclical processes of claiming territory in and around the national park in the name of environmental protection systematically marginalize communities living in the Mount Elgon region.Through the application and interrogation of state theory, these inquiries reveal how tactics of environmental governance consistently operate beyond the expected logics of the state, creating regulatory constellations which are largely disordered, uneven, or irregular in their strategies of control and expressions of authority and legitimacy. Instead of prioritizing and protecting residents' rights to personal and livelihood security, the protection of resources such as timber, water, and land are privileged, and residents are posed as threats to state authority and resource conservation. Ultimately, the intention to impose order on protected areas well beyond the needs of resource protection leads to encroachment of property rights, militarization of conservation spaces, normalization of ranger discretion, and exercise of force in communities surrounding the park. In short, the imposition of order by state actors in the name of environment protection, institutionalizes disordered governance for those who reside in and around Mount Elgon National Park. A system of governance enabled and justified by the state and internationally sanctioned strategies of environmental protection, what I term "wild states" is brought into being at this East African resource frontier.
