Zusatztext "...Boardman provides illuminating insights on the natural/social science transdiciplinary academic enterprise..." - Environment Informationen zum Autor ROBERT BOARDMAN is McCulloch Professor of Political Science at Dalhousie University, Nova Scotia. His publications include Post-Socialist World Orders: Russia, China and the UN System; Politics of the Wild: Endangered Species in Canada, edited with Karen Beazley and Canadian Environmental Policy, 2nd edition , edited with Debora VanNijnatten. Klappentext The Political Economy of Nature draws extensively on current insights from sociology, ecology, economics and earth science. Robert Boardman pools these diverse resources to argue that the investigation of environmental issues raises complex theoretical questions which can only be answered through more sustained links between the natural and social sciences. With global issues becoming an increasingly vital part of environmental debates, Boardman shows how understanding of ecological problems can be increased in both International Relations and International Political Economy.
