This edited volume introduces dynamic approaches to the study of
Southeast Asia's environmental diversity from different
disciplinary perspectives at the interface between the natural and
social sciences. It brings together research on the region's
environmental resource use and shared ecological challenges in the
context of present day globalization to offer insights for possible
future directions. The book introduces unique approaches to the
study of Southeast Asia's environmental changes and resource
management under the influence of intensifying economic change in
the region. It also examines the slow erosion of Southeast Asia's
rich environment and addresses serious issues such as the decrease
in biodiversity and tropical forests, and the degradation of peat
lands. At the same time, it discusses the social issues that are
tied to energy-dependent growth and have intensified over the last
two decades. It also analyzes the new roadmaps being created to
protect, conserve, and manage the environment. By investigating the
many ecological issues surrounding us, the volume brings to light
the constant struggles we face while trying to develop a more
inclusive and equitable approach to natural resources governance.
This volume is relevant for students, academics and researchers who
have an interest in the Southeast Asian environment and the way in
which we use and interact with it.
