Interesting - I worked for 2 years in Yogya in the mid 1980s. While they might have thought systemically at that time, it was very "hard-wired" systems - if everyone does what they are told, the system works. Gilberto Gallopin, Ernesto Raez-Luna, James Kay, myself & several others talked about "perverse resilience" in the Peruvian Amazon. Sometimes we want to make the systems unstable so we can get gender equality and other core issues into a re-imagined system.
