Environmental Values in a Globalizing World (eBook, PDF)

Nature, Justice and Governance

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume brings together contributions from prominent philosophers, political scientists and other scholars on the challenges that globalization poses to traditional environmental values. In a world where the role of nation states is diminishing, the authors investigate how environmental values could be reconceived and what kind of governance institutions could realize them. They make a strong argument for pluralism and governance institutions that can maintain and fertilize it, underlining that while there will be increasing reasons to protect the environment for its own sake, the environment will also continue to be important for economic development as well as other aspects of human well-being.
