 H-Net Review: James B. Petersen on Hunter-Gatherers: An Interdisciplinary Perspective
Layton makes the intriguing suggestion that this was due to the fact that hunting and gathering was more efficient than farming in Arnhem Land.[20] These cases and others, too, show that symbiotic relationships between hunter-gatherers and others are quite common, and in some cases reach dependence, even though it is not necessarily an economic necessity.
Layton reviews the effects of state policy on hunter-gatherers in several ways, emphasizing first how much they have been changed by colonial forces and the fact that none had escaped some change by the time they were first met by anthropologists.
Layton's later discussion of the effects of ranching more generally, the "conservationism" movement and national parks, and hunter-gatherer "land rights" provide a polite condemnation of how hunter-gatherers have been treated in many different areas.
