Dear all
EARTHSCAN is pleased to announce the publication of the following new title:
Gender and Natural Resource Management
Livelihoods, Mobility and Interventions
Bernadette P. Resurreccion and Rebecca Elmhirst
Gender and Natural Resource Management is about the gender dimensions of natural resource exploitation and management, with a focus on South and Southeast Asia. It provides an exploration of the uneasy negotiations between theory, policy and practice that are often evident within the realm of gender, environment and natural resource management, especially where gender is understood as a political, negotiated and contested element of social relationships.
The book will serve as a core resource for students of gender studies and natural resource management, and as supplementary reading for a wide range of disciplines including geography, environmental studies, sociology and development. It will also provide a stimulating collection of ideas for professionals looking to incorporate gender issues within their practice in sustainable development.
