Description
The Globalization and Environment Reader explores the complex relationship between globalization and sustainable development. This collection of readings offers a diverse range of perspectives on whether economic globalization can be made compatible with environmental protection.
Featuring carefully edited extracts from leading authors, this book addresses key questions about the impact of globalization on the environment and vice versa. Topics include the 'marketization' of nature, debates about managing globalization's relationship with the environment, and discussions on how to make globalization more sustainable.
This comprehensive reader provides a systematic overview of the field without assuming prior knowledge, making it an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the future of our planet in the 21st century.
