Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unisectoral management approach and regulatory measures failed to arrest the rapid rate of resource depletion and deterioration of the environment. An integrated management and reconciliatory approach is considered more appropriate but should be reinforced by political will and institutional commitment in implementation. Participation by the coastal communities is considered essential for long-term management of the coastal resources to sustain economic development. Some Southeast Asian nations have taken such initiatives towards this direction. [Author's abstract].

Book excerpt: Most of the world's population lives on or near the coasts. Every nation not completely landlocked has used the sea as its supposedly self-cleansing garbage dump. Now the effects are being felt. There is not a coast in the world which is not dangerously polluted. Sewage, oil, plastics, industrial effluents, radioactive waste have been added to ungoverned development, all of which are busily destroying otherwise robust inshore eco-systems. Hinrichsen, basing his work on United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) research and his own extensive travels, has described the situation in the Mediterranean, the Gulf, the Indian Ocean, the South-East Asian Seas and the Eastern Pacific. He covers both the disasters and the growing successes in dealing with them, and he points the way to the sort of international deal needed to rescue a vast resource in danger of complete destruction. His book is both a call to action and a sign of hope. Originally published in 1990

This book was released on 1990 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on South-East Asian and Pacific regions richly endowed with natural resources in international demand to examine patterns of extraction and use and analyse subsequent conflicts. Attempting to find ways of preventing such conflicts, the study addresses the role of the state and its development policies, militarization, the impact of the world economic crises, the role of modern science and technology, human rights, and cultural survival. Reviewing the strategies employed by the various countries to maintain their access to marine and land-based natural resources, the book also suggests alternatives for resolving the conflicts at local, national, and international levels.

Download or read book Land Conflicts in Southeast Asia written by Catherine J. Iorns Magallanes and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This material was originally published as three chapters in the book (now out of print) of the same name. The book examines a representative range of conflicts of land and resources in Southeast Asia, and standards and laws that the international community has devised which could be relevant to their resolution. It emphasises in particular relevant standards concerning human rights and environmental protection. This excerpt contains the Introduction, the chapter by Catherine Iorns on international law, and the book's Conclusion. The Introduction outlines the then current conflicts over land and resources in Southeast Asia, factors which lead to their internationalisation, the relevance of international laws, and the analytical framework that the various contributors in the book use in order to discuss the conflict case studies. The chapter on international law outlines the international legal framework in relation to ownership and use of land and resources within states. It discusses state sovereignty and limitations on it that are relevant to the matters raised in the book. It discusses the rights of indigenous peoples to land and resources, as conflict over these was a feature common to several of the case studies. It also discusses relevant aspects of international environmental law. The Conclusion utilises the analytical framework to make comments across the case studies about the levels at which disputes arise and the use of international dispute resolution mechanisms. It makes comments about the relevance and utility of international law for such disputes. And it makes suggestions for non-violent action at national and international levels for prevention and resolution of such domestic conflicts.
Download or read book Environmental Science for Environmental Management written by Timothy O'Riordan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-13 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental Science for Environmental Management has quickly established itself as the leading introduction to environmental science, demonstrating how a more environmental science can create an effective approach to environmental management on different spatial scales. Since publication of the first edition, environmentalism has become an increasing concern on the global political agenda. Following the Rio Conference and meetings on population, social justice, women, urban settlement and oceans, civil society has increasingly promoted the cause of a more radical agenda, ranging from rights to know, fair trade, social empowerment, social justice and civil rights for the oppressed, as well as novel forms of accounting and auditing. This new edition is set in the context of a changing environmentalism and a challenged science. It builds on the popularity and applicability of the first edition and has been fully revised and updated by the existing writing team from the internationally renowned School of Environmental Science at the University of East Anglia. Environmental Science for Environmental Management is an essential text for for undergraduate students of environmental science, environmental management, planning and geography. It is invaluable supplementary reading for environmental biology and environmental chemistry courses, as well as for engineering, economics and business studies.

This book was released on 2014-10-02 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coastal areas around the world are severely stressed due to a myriad of human activities and marine pollution. They are now detrimentally being affected by climate change and sea level rise as well. One major theater most acutely impacted by these phenomena is coastal South Asia, an overcrowded region with low adaptive capacities. Drawing on the experiences of coastal countries and regions beyond South Asia, Towards Sustainable Coastal Development: Institutionalizing Integrated Coastal Zone Management and Coastal Climate Change Adaptation in South Asia recommends operationalizing integrated coastal zone management and linking the same with coastal climate change adaptation under appropriately crafted coastal laws to facilitate a move towards sustainable coastal development.
