      title = {Building environmental peace : the UN environment  programme as a knowledge actor /},
      abstract = {By analyzing the UN Environment Programmes (UNEPs)  contribution to peacebuilding, this book aims to show how  international bureaucracies develop knowledge and thereby  come to matter on the world stage. Portraying UNEP as an  open system, it explores how a growing understanding within  the Programme of how environmental degradation shapes  insecurities and vice versa has motivated its work on  peacebuilding. The theoretical part of this book addresses  knowledge, open systems, and knowledge creation. It then  presents a historical discussion of UNEPs development in an  open system context. Finally, it investigates how knowledge  emergence on the linkage between the environment,  conflicts, and insecurities influenced UNEPs interests and  its work on environmental peacebuilding. Natalia Dalmer is  a researcher at the Institute of Political Science at  Leibniz University Hannover, Germany. She works on  international bureaucracies, knowledge, and environmental  politics.},
