Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book highlights the different ways of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) practices that conserve natural resources sustainably. Traditional ecological knowledge (TEK), along with synonymous or closely related terms like indigenous knowledge and native science, originates in the literature on international development and adaptive management. Against the backdrop of unprecedented global degradation and reduction in ecosystem services with impacts on human well-being over the last 50 years, there is a growing interest in the role of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) practices and systems of local communities in ensuring the sustainable utilization and management of resources. In this context, this book comprehensively analyzes the important aspects of natural resources in Asia. This book covers a detailed study of the different aspects of natural resources. It is divided into three sections, which deal with varying dimensions of indigenous ecological knowledge of resource management in Asia. The first part reflects upon the concept of traditional ecological knowledge, the second part analyzes the systematic documentation of TEK practices, and the third part deals with policy for governance. This book critically describes and explains the indigenous knowledge about resource management. This book is the ideal text for undergraduate, postgraduate, and research scholarsin India and abroad. This book is designed in such a manner that it covers all the aspects of natural resources. It also helps the administrator and policymakers use indigenous knowledge in resource management.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book highlights the different ways of seeing and engaging with the natural world and underscores the need to acknowledge and honour the ways that indigenous peoples have done for generations. Mountain regions occupy about one-fourth of the Earth's terrestrial surface and they are home to almost one-tenth of the global population and offer goods and services to more than half of humanity. Consequently, they received attention at the highest level during the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro's Earth Summit . Mountain environments are crucial to the survival of global ecosystems, many of them are experiencing degradation in terms of accelerated soil erosion, landslides, and rapid loss of habitat and genetic diversity, etc. Hence, proper management of mountain resources and the socio-economic development of the people deserves immediate action. Unfortunately, the capacity of mountain ecosystems to provide continued resources is threatened due to the increasing stress of human impact at the global level in general and the Himalayan region in particular. The Himalaya, a highly complex and diversified mountain system in terms of bio-physical attributes, is considered a life support system for millions of people in the uplands and many more in lowland areas of India. It acts as a climate regulator for much of Asia and is globally recognized for its sacred, spiritual, and philosophical values. The richness and uniqueness of bio-physical and socio-cultural diversity and the rich heritage of Indigenous Knowledge and Practices (IKP) have earned the Himalaya global recognition. Being young and geotectonically active, this system remains inherently unstable, fragile, and prone to natural disasters. Also, the vulnerability of this mountain chain to human-induced disturbances is now well established. Therefore, being a special and sensitive system, and more importantly due to its life support values, the Himalaya deserve special attention. It requires conservation and development interventions in a sustainable manner, which do not ignore the imperatives of mountain specificities. Thus, calls for evolving new paradigms of long-term conservation and sustainable development that help restore a complex balance between economic interests and ecological imperatives in the region and country in general. Understanding that the Himalaya are important for the Ecological Security of the region, there is a need for its conservation in the 21st century. The present book proposal has been decided to document the Himalayan priorities to achieve sustainable development goals. The book is consisting of four sections, which will deal with the different dimensions of the Himalaya. The present book is conceptualized with an idea to collect case studies on various aspects and applications of conservation measures to value their knowledge, and wisdom and to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs).…
