Synopsis

Environmental governance encompasses our relations to nature, spanning institutions and policies in fields such as biodiversity loss, climate change, land use and pollution. This book offers tools for the study of environmental conflicts, analyzes the current status of environmental policies and discusses why we are so far from resolving many of the issues we face. It also offers alternative directions for future environmental governance.

Key features include:

• an interdisciplinary and integrated approach
• an overview of the field of environmental governance
• a focus both on local and global challenges and policies
• the positioning of environmental governance within the wider field of economic policy and development.

This book will be ideal for interdisciplinary masters programs in environmental studies and environmental policy and management. It will also be of great value to practitioners in the field exploring alternative solutions for governance of environmental resources.
