Some more quotations from
"A Space in Place" (1996)
by Gary Snyder:
                                                    BEYOND_WILD

From the essay:
"The Politics of Ethnopoetics"

    "The Brazilian official statement is 'we think
    the only way for the Indians to improve their
    health, education, and begin self-development is
    through development.'  Now, before you laugh, ask
    yourself this question: Do you have a good answer
    to that argument?  Do you want to take the
    position that the Indians of Brazil should be
    placed in a national park with a fence around it
    and have absolutely no contact with the civilized
    world at all?"  p. 134
