| Summary |
"Confronting Environmental Change in East and Southeast Asia is a collection of concise, hard-hitting essays by a group of international experts and scholars that addresses these complex issues and brings foreign policy considerations into analyses of how states and other actors in East and Southeast Asia confront environmental change through international cooperation and environmentally sustainable development." "Together, the analysis and case studies in this volume illuminate how environmental change is confronted - or not - in East and Southeast Asia, with a host of important insights for researchers, governments, policy-makers, conservationists and business people dealing with the profound environmental problems facing the region."--BOOK JACKET |
