Book Information
While the problems of low level of economic development, grinding poverty and environmental degredation are widespread throughout the developing world, few regions have taken a more severe toll than South Asia. The absence of a plural and open political system compounds the problems of overall socio-economic development. This book uses case studies to analyze different aspects of the economics-environment nexus.
