Nature and Social Theory By Adrian Franklin 2001 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0761963774 | PDF | 3 MB This book asks the questions can `Man' be separated from `Nature'? Is it valid to seek to `control' Nature? It argues that the firm modern boundaries between nature and culture have been breached and pulls together new strands of thinking about nature which suggest that humanity and nature have never been separate. The argument is developed through a critical discussion of the Romantic ideal of pure nature, unsullied by humanity and largely confined to fragile margins in need of protection and more recent discourses which identify nature with environment, and cast man in the role of a polluter and destroyer.  Nature and Culture: Rebuilding Lost Connections By Sarah Pilgrim, Jules Pretty 2010 | 294 Pages | ISBN: 1844078213 | PDF | 3 MB There is a growing recognition that the diversity of life comprises both biological and cultural diversity. But there remains a common disciplinary division between nature and culture, often exacerbated by our need to manage and control nature. A variety of environmental sub-disciplines have emerged to address this division, and some of these bridge the natural and social sciences. Although many have the potential to contribute to understanding, they remain somewhat fragmented. This book goes beyond divisive definitions and investigates the bridges linking biological and cultural diversity. The authors explore the common drivers of loss of both biological and cultural diversity. They indicate that policy responses should target both biological and cultural diversity in a novel integrative approach to conservation, thus reducing the gap between science, policy and practice. The degree to which ecosystem diversity is linked to cultural diversity is only beginning to be understood, and there is much still to learn. But it is precisely as our knowledge is advancing that both types of diversity are under even greater pressure. While conserving nature alongside human cultures presents unique challenges, this book forcefully shows that any hope for saving biological diversity is predicated on a concomitant effort to appreciate and protect cultural diversity.Contributors include: Helen Newing, University of Kent, UK Jonathon Loh, Zoological Society of London, David Harmon, The George Wright Society Ellen Woodley, The Heron Group Bill Adams, University of Cambridge, UK Tirso Gonzales, University of British Columbia, Canada Maria Gonzalez David J.

However, although methods for evaluating the impacts of crop improvement technologies are well developed, there is a dearth of methods for evaluating the impacts of NRM interventions. This is partly due to the complexity of interactions among natural resources, spatial and temporal dimensions of impact, and the valuation of direct and indirect environmental costs and benefits. This book discusses the unique features and methodological difficulties of NRM impact assessment. It examines the strengths and weaknesses of various impact assessment approaches, including econometric, bio-economic, and more direct methods. It also assesses and identifies data requirements for developing impact indicators and recommends suitable methodologies for assessing the impacts of NRM technologies on issues such as soil and water conservation and watershed and biodiversity management.

Natura 2000: Auswirkung und Umsetzung im innerstaatlichen Recht By Erich P rgy, Erich Purgy, Erich Pa1 4rgy 2005 | 412 Pages | ISBN: 3211282513 | PDF | 2 MB Natura 2000 basiert auf zwei EU-Richtlinien: der Vogelschutzrichtlinie und der Fauna-Flora-Habitat-Richtlinie. Die Umsetzung dieser beiden EU-Richtlinien betrifft zahlreiche ?sterreichische Gesetzesmaterien, allen voran die Naturschutzgesetze. Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich umfassend mit der Einf?hrung von Natura 2000 ins innerstaatliche Recht. Der Schwerpunkt der Ausf?hrungen liegt bei den Gebietsschutzbestimmungen und den Regelungen ?ber den Artenschutz. Erstmals werden die komplexen rechtlichen Fragestellungen, die sich vor allem materien?bergreifend f?r die Landesgesetzgeber, aber auch f?r die Bundesgesetzgeber stellen und zum Teil sehr heikel zu handhaben sind, strukturiert aufgearbeitet. Ein praktischer Leitfaden nicht nur f?r alle Landesgesetzgeber, den Bundesgesetzgeber sowie alle Vollziehungsbeh?rden, sondern auch f?r Umweltorganisationen, Grundeigent?mer oder Bewilligungswerber.

Native To The Nation: Disciplining Landscapes And Bodies In Australia (Borderlines series) By Allaine Cerwonka 2004 | 283 Pages | ISBN: 0816643482 | PDF | 3 MB In a world increasingly marked by migration and dislocation, the question of displacement, and of establishing a sense of belonging, has become ever more common and ever more urgent. But what of those who stay in place? How do people who remain in their place of origin or ancestral homeland rearticulate a sense of connection, of belonging, when ownership of the territory they occupy is contested? Focusing on Australia, Allaine Cerwonka examines the physical and narrative spatial practices by which people reclaim territory in the wake of postcolonial claims to land by indigenous people and new immigration of "foreigners." As a multicultural, postcolonial nation whose claims to land until recently were premised on the notion of the continent as "empty" (terra nullius), Australia offers an especially rich lens for understanding the reterritorialization of the nation-state in an era of globalization. To this end, Native to the Nation provides a multisited ethnography of two communities in Melbourne, the Fitzroy Police Station and the East Melbourne Garden Club, allowing us to see how bodies are managed and nations physically constructed in everyday confrontations and cultivations. |
