Global patterns and trends in NTFP development
Understanding of the role and potential of NTFPs in livelihood strategies has been hindered by a lack
of a clear theoretical framework and a functional typology of cases and the conditions that characterize each of the groups. To help fill this gap, we undertook a large comparative analysis of cases of NTFP commercialization. The analysis followed the method developed by Ruiz-Perez and Byron (1999). It was designed to help to find patterns among divergent cases, to develop typologies, to identify key contextual variables, and to analyze the relationships with observed development outcomes.
