Description:
The implications for justice and injustice have rarely been explored in reference to ecosystem services. This book argues that environmental management can neither be separated from justice concerns, as conservationists like to believe, nor is it in fundamental opposition to justice, as critics like to put it.
Review Quotes:
"The book's lasting influence will stem from the thorough analysis and evaluation of ecosystem services in light of three dimensions of environmental justice: distribution; participation; and recognition ... This book provides a sturdy platform for taking the right course of action." - Crosslands Bulletin
"The authors of this book are social scientists describing and convincingly criticizing various types of ecosystem services-based government interventions... I would certainly recommend it to all sorts of readers" - Frederik H. Kistenkas, Wageningen University, in Ecosystem Services journal
