The environmental impacts of such rapid economic changes have been, more frequently than otherwise, degrading in character. Environmental impacts of economic activities create degraded natural ecosystems by over utilization of nature?s provisioning ecosystem services (from Himalaya to the Ocean), as well, by the use of the natural environment as sink for dumping of unmarketable products or unused inputs of economic activities. Such processes affect wide range of ecosystem processes on which the natural environment including human population depend on. Critical perspectives cast by various chapters in this book draw attention to the various ways in which space and power interact to produce diverse geographies of sustainability in a globalizing world. They also address the questions such as who decides what kind of a spatial arrangement of political power is needed for sustaining the environment. Who stands to gain (or lose) what, when, where, and why from certain geographical areas being demarcated as ecologically unique, fragile and vulnerable environments? Whose needs and values are being catered to by a given ecosystem service? What is the scope for critical inquiry into the ways in which the environment is imagined, represented and resisted in both geopolitical struggles and everyday life? The book provides insights to both academics from diverse disciplines and policy makers, civil society actors interested in mutual exchange of knowledge between China and India. 000779187 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 7, 2017). 000779187 650_0 $$aSustainable development$$zChina. 000779187 650_0 $$aSustainable development$$zIndia. 000779187 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy$$zChina. 000779187 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy$$zIndia. 000779187 7001_ $$aDong, Shikui,$$eeditor. 000779187 7001_ $$aBandyopadhyay, Jayanta,$$eeditor. 000779187 7001_ $$aChaturvedi, Sanjay,$$eeditor. 000779187 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319440354 000779187 852__ $$bebk 000779187 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-44037-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000779187 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:779187$$pGLOBAL_SET 000779187 980__ $$aEBOOK 000779187 980__ $$aBIB 000779187 982__ $$aEbook 000779187 983__ $$aOnline 000779187 994__ $$a92$$bISE
