Sustainable Development: Bridging the Research : Policy Gaps in Southern Contexts

This two-volume book is the result of concern for translating specialized multi and transdisciplinary research into effective policy measures in the global South.

Thus, researchers, academics, creative writers, theorists, activists and policy-makers from different regions of the world have endeavoured to highlight critical issues of social and economic development.

Both volumes highlight the crosscutting linkages between the environment and social sectors, and the increasingly complex demands upon the policy arena to respond to these issues quickly and effectively.

The first volume addresses the broad theme of the environment and its interface with governance and globalization; the second volume addresses the issue of sustainable development vis-a-vis the social sectors.
