Summary |
In a refreshing new approach to what environmental management EM is and who it involves, Environmental management: new directions for the twenty-first century moves onwards from the traditional state-centred perspective and explores EM as a multi-layered process involving a wide range of actors. The book aims to contribute to a new understanding of the subject, which will interest all students of EM. This stimulating and provocative book will prove useful to all students taking courses in environmental management, in departments of geography, environmental sciences and in the increasingly environmentally aware parts of the social sciences in general |
