He is author of four books and 30 publications and is a security sector advisor for the United Nations and Inter-American Development Bank. He has received fellowships from the Woodrow Wilson Center and the Ford, Tinker, and Henkel Foundations. This book is the most updated and comprehensive look at efforts to protect the Amazon, home to half of the world's remaining tropical forests. In the past five years, the Basin's countries have become the cutting edge of environmental enforcement through formation of constitutional protections, military operations, stringent laws, police forces, judicial procedures and societal efforts that together break through barriers that have long restrained decisive action. Even such advances, though, struggle to curb devastation by oil extraction, mining, logging, dams, pollution, and other forms of ecocide. In every country, environmental protection is crippled by politics, bureaucracy, unclear laws, untrained officials, small budgets, regional rivalries, inter-ministerial competition, collusion with criminals, and the global demand for oils and minerals. Countries are better at creating environmental agencies, that is, than making sure that they work. This book explains why, with country studies written by those on the front lines--from national enforcement directors to biologists and activists. 000824044 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed October 25, 2017). 000824044 650_0 $$aEnvironmental law$$zAmazon River Region. 000824044 650_0 $$aEnvironmental protection$$zAmazon River Region. 000824044 650_0 $$aRain forests$$zAmazon River Region. 000824044 7001_ $$aUngar, Mark,$$eeditor. 000824044 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319565514 000824044 830_0 $$aPalgrave pivot. 000824044 852__ $$bebk 000824044 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-56552-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000824044 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:824044$$pGLOBAL_SET 000824044 980__ $$aEBOOK 000824044 980__ $$aBIB 000824044 982__ $$aEbook 000824044 983__ $$aOnline 000824044 994__ $$a92$$bISE
