N2 - This paper is a study in the hermeneutics of the local wild food plants and identity politics in Enshi Prefecture. It examines the meanings that have been constructed around these wild foods and endeavors to connect these meanings to larger cultural issues, specifically how these foods and their various meanings relate to the construction of the local ethnic identity. The analysis suggests that efforts to rebuild the positive image and meanings associated with these foods will enable sustainable development, improve local economies, and facilitate biodiversity conservation.
