This multidisciplinary book examines the diverse ways in which
environmental disasters with compounding impacts are being governed
as they traverse sovereign territories across rapidly urbanising
societies in Asia and the Pacific. Combining theoretical advances
with contextually rich studies, the book examines efforts to tackle
the complexities of cross-border environmental governance. In an
urban age in which disasters are not easily contained within neatly
delineated jurisdictions, both in terms of their interconnected
causalities and their cascading effects, governance structures and
mechanisms are faced with major challenges related to cooperation,
collaboration and information sharing. This book helps bridge the
gap between theory and practice by offering fresh insights and
contrasting explanations for variations in transboundary disaster
governance regimes among urbanising populations in the
Asia-Pacific.
