In conclusion: environmental stewardship and sustainable development--the need for and earth charter/R.B. Jain. Index. "This volume is the outcome of an international conference which was organised by the International Political Science Association's Research Committees 4 and 35 on public bureaucracies in developing societies and technology and development in association with Friedrich Ebert stiftung, New Delhi and the Department of Political Science, University of Delhi. Many internationally distinguished scholars have focused their attention on a number of issues that have arisen in the context of environmental stewardship and sustainable development. The major thrust of the book has been to discuss the various parameters of the individual and institutional stewardship for sustainable development. Both stewardship and sustainability require an understanding between individuals, between individuals and groups, between groups and communities and between communities and societies upto the global level. Environmental stewardship posits a relationship between human beings and the rest of the creation--not based on domination and exploitation--but on responsibility and accountability for use and preservation of natural resources in order to meet the needs of the present and future generations in a sustainable and equitable manner. In the background of this perspective, the essays in this volume discuss a number of interrelated questions regarding environmental stewardship and sustainable development viz, Is this concept in congruence with eco-ferminism and bio-diversity protection? Is it too human-centred, because it does not recognise the "reverse relationship" between nature and human? can it be made more eco-centric? does it not emphasise respect for indigenous knowledge and cultural diversity? What implementation strategies and institutional mechanisms can be developed in order to operationalise the concept into secular setting through governmental policies and programmes? What role can the political leadership and bureaucracy perform in promoting environment stewardship and sustainable development? How can international aid.
