The idea of socioecosystems answers the growing need to understand,
in the context of the Anthropocene, how adaptive processes
interact, and how that interplay results in the coevolution of
living beings. Studying socioecosystems means taking into account
the diversity of temporal and physical scales in order to grasp how
ecological, social and economic forces are interwoven. Based on
these drivers, the complex dynamics that determine the habitability
of the Earth emerge. This book analyzes, through concrete cases
from regional socioecosystems on several continents, how research
action has provided answers to problems related to agriculture,
health and the conservation of biodiversity. It demonstrates that
these undertakings could not have succeeded without the combined
efforts of the communities of living beings and objects, the
community of knowledge and the communities of action. These
examples are accompanied by a reflection on the conditions that
make it possible to bring this research to completion.
