Octavo, paperback,250 pp.,tables, figures. This book brings together the leading researchers from relevant disciplines (planning, geography, environmental studies, public policy) to critically review environmental management over the past decade, and to identify the challenges in environmental management that must be met by the new government. Instead of the uncritical advocacy that sometimes accompanies experiments in environmental governance and policy, this volume will provide a dispassionate, critical and empirical review in an effort to deepen understanding and improve the national quest for sustainability.
