Riassunto

This ambitious interdisciplinary volume places population processes in their social, political, and economic contexts while it considers their environmental impacts. Examining the multi-faceted patterns of human relationships that overlay, alter, and distort our ties to urban and rural landscapes, the book focuses especially on the essential experiences and perspectives of poor Third World women, offering a more equitable view of development and its global ramifications. This ambitious interdisciplinary volume places population processes in their social, political, and economic contexts while it considers their environmental impacts. The contributors, who explore the subtle and complex connections between population and environment, argue for the fundamental insight that the impact of population on the environment involves not just absolute numbers of peoplenor even just population densitiesbut also social, political, and institutional factors. Examining the complex patterns of human relationships that overlay, alter, and distort our ties to urban and rural landscapes, the book includes a significant focus on the essential experiences and perspectives of poor Third World women. With its rich and varied views of the relationship between population and the environment, this book offers a more equitable view of development and its global ramifications.
