Fire in the Andes is a trenchant comparative analysis of why the U.S. drug wars in Bolivia and Peru are failing. While frequent anti-drug battles are won, a flawed policy analysis and strategy have led to strategic foreign policy defeat in the region. This book fills an important gap in our in-depth knowledge of U.S. foreign policy and its application in the drug wars of the high Andes region of South America. Written from the perspective of a former active participant in the U.S. anti-drug policy formulation and implementation efforts, the study uses an in-depth comparative approach to evaluate the effectiveness of the U.S. anti-drug foreign policy in Bolivia and Peru which currently comprise the primary focus of the Clinton Administration's counter-drug efforts to combat narcotrafficking at the source in Latin America today.

The effect of fire in burned ecosystems depends on the dominance of characteristic traits that allow plants to recruit new individuals. Regenerative characteristics such as resprouting and wind-dispersal are considered fire-adaptive traits as they allow the rapid establishment of individuals to post-fire conditions. Recently, the Andean subparamo in Colombia has experienced severe forest fires, but little is known on its ability to recover or not after a fire. Therefore, we examined whether plant regeneration, after a subparamo fire in 2016, was associated to fire tolerance traits such as resprouting, dispersal mode and fruit type. We sampled, every four months, from 1 up to 3 years after the fire, all recruits found in 24 5x5m plots. New individuals were classified as resprouts or seedlings. Among seedlings we characterized the dispersal mode and the fruit type. Results showed that trees comprised 55% of the taxa. More tree (100%) than herb (92%) taxa resprouted. Although seed was not the main regeneration mechanism (72%), seedling abundance increased with time. The number of seedlings emerged from wind dispersed seeds was higher than other dispersal modes; however, seedlings emerged from zoochorus seeds increased with time. Achenes and capsules, with woody and coriaceous pericarps, were the most important fruit types. We discuss that although it is not known whether or not the Andean subparamo is a fire-prone ecosystem, it does have fire-adaptive traits such as resprouting and wind dispersal, which should be considered in restoration programs. We also, highlight the importance of animal (mainly birds) dispersal for the arrival of new propagules after a fire.

Back in PrintWorld Fire is the story of how fire and humans have coevolved. The two are inseparable, and together they have repeatedly remade the planet.“Pyne considers the evolution of fire in such diverse regions as Australia, Africa, Brazil, Sweden, Greece, Iberia, Russia, and India and then ponders Antarctica, the land without fire. As he examines changing techniques for and attitudes toward fire control, Pyne challenges our concepts of nature and wilderness and explains why the study and management of fire have tremendous environmental, cultural, and political implications.”—Booklist“A sweeping historical treatise that examines our world’s love/hate relationship with conflagration. His engrossing ideas leave bright embers in the memory.”—Outside
