This major new book presents recent advances in the theory and
practice of environmental valuation and resource management.
Leading experts in the field present methodological and empirical
evidence for applying valuation methods to ecological policy
problems. The methodological contributions examine such themes as
uncertainty, distributional conflict, positional analysis, weak
comparability and the need for collective solutions to
environmental problems. Case studies are incorporated to support
these theoretical reflections. A number of empirical studies are
used to demonstrate and evaluate valuation practices in a variety
of institutional and policy settings. These range from
international environmental issues such as climate change and
transboundary atmospheric pollution, to species preservation and
coastal ecosystem protection. The contributors conclude that
effective approaches for the evaluation of environmental risks,
degradation and benefits must be specifically designed as functions
of institutional, social and ecological factors. Valuation and the
Environment will be essential reading for students and scholars of
environmental and ecological economics, environmental management
and regulation, resource management and public policy.
