      abstract = {The colonial historiography of Suriname has often  portrayed the Indigenous and Maroon inhabitants of the  Surinamese Amazon in stereotypical ways, according to which  the former would be stewards of the rainforest whereas the  latter would have a destructive relationship to nature.  Such stereotypes have persisted in conservationist  discourse and in the Surinamese nationalist literature of  the first half of the twentieth century. As such, they were  at the basis of the Surinamese national project prior to  independence, and justified dispossessing Maroon  populations of their ancestral lands. The alleged  ecological differences between the two populations can,  however, not be sustained within our current understanding  of Amazonian history.},
