Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. Contributors: Partha Dasgupta, C. S. Holling, Robert Fogel, Geoffrey McNicoll, Caroline Bledsoe, Robert Willis, Amartya Sen, Nancy BirdsallGlobal population increase and production and consumption patterns and levels make the crucial issues first raised by Malthus two hundred years ago more important than ever. The debate today is characterized by the position taken up by this book, that the issues of population and itsgrowth or decline cannot be separated from the whole set of questions of economic and social development, and from the environmental concerns related to the production and consumption of peoples throughout the whole of theworld. Analysis must thus be made at the global, as well as at the regional, level.In this book seven distinguished scholars from different fields take up three main themes: the Malthusian conflict, factors underlying fertility changes, and development strategic issues related to the population-environment nexus. They explore in depth the connections between population size and growth, environmental degradation, and poverty, taking into account the effects of increasingcompetition for natural resources on social structures. The household unit itself also comes under scrutiny, with the examination of issues such as inequality between the genders, and between children,young adults, and the old.The rapidly increasing stress on the world's natural-resource base can, especially in the overpopulated areas of the world, create social tension and conflicts between or within nations long before major ecological breakdown occurs. The issues raised in this book should therefore be placed firmly in the international agenda. Prompted by the growing concern about the environmental impact of high consumption levels and population growth, and by fears of major ecological breakdown, this book looks at the links between demographic trends, economic development, and the environment.
