Conflicts over the conservation of biodiversity are increasing and are serious obstacles to wildlife conservation efforts worldwide. Changing patterns in land use, over-exploitation, pollution, climate change and the threat posed by invasive species all challenge the way we currently maintain and protect biodiversity - from the local management of single species to the international management of resources. Integrating approaches from different academic disciplines, policy makers and practitioners, this volume offers a radically new, cross-disciplinary, multi-scale approach to deal with conflicts. Groundbreaking strategies for conservation are analysed and a large section of the book is devoted to exploring case studies of conflict from around the world. Aimed primarily at academics, researchers and students from disciplines relating to conservation, ecology, natural resources management and environmental governance, this book will be equally valuable to conservation NGOs and practitioners, and the policy community at national and international levels.
Read more- Analyses the complex nature of conflicts, their scale and the framework within which they operate, allowing readers to broaden their understanding of conflict in conservation
- Focuses on the interdisciplinary needs and challenges for effective conservation involving species, protected areas and competing land use demands, providing a must-read guide for everyone interested in conservation
- Discusses numerous case studies on conflicts around the world, introducing groundbreaking strategies for conflict resolution
