{"product_id":"9789814590495","title":"Environmental Policies In Asia: Perspectives From Seven Asian Countries: Perspectives from Seven Asian Countries","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEnvironmental Policies in Asia\u003c\/i\u003e highlights the environmental challenges Asian planners and policymakers face as the continent undergoes rapid economic growth in the 21st Century. Edited by Jing Huang and Shreekant Gupta, with contributions from leading Asian scholar practitioners, this timely and unique volume is the first of its kind to look at environmental policies and governance from the perspective of seven dynamic Asian countries. These include developed economies of Japan and Singapore, emerging giants such as China and India and rapidly developing nations such as Vietnam, Indonesia and Malaysia. The volume discusses environmental challenges that stem from issues as local as poor recycling practices, to ones that are as vast and complex as global climate change. Engaging, accessible, and pan-Asian in scope, the essays also present creative ways in which these challenges are being addressed. This book is valuable to anyone who is keen on understanding Asia, its growth, and whether its rise is environmentally sustainable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eEnvironmentally Sustainable Development in Asia: Challenges and Choices \u003ci\u003e(Jing Huang)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKey Issues in Combating Environmental Concerns in Asia:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmental Policy and Governance in a Federal Framework: Perspectives from India \u003ci\u003e(Shreekant Gupta)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJapan's Role in Climate Change Issues \u003ci\u003e(Ryuzo Yamamoto)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eEnvironmental Impacts of 'Fast Development in Asia':\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolicies for Environmentally Sustainable Development: Perspectives from Vietnam \u003ci\u003e(Nguyen Huu Ninh)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResource-Environmental Foundation for Green and Low-Carbon Development in China \u003ci\u003e(Zhu Shou-xian)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's Environmental Governance: Evolution and Limitations \u003ci\u003e(Wu Fuzuo)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFragmentation to Integration: Environmental and Sustainable Development Challenges in Malaysia \u003ci\u003e(Chee Yoke Ling and Lim Li Ching)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eEnvironmental Policy Implementation: Achievements and Challenges:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoverning the Common Firm: The Evolution of Environmental Policy for Small Businesses in India \u003ci\u003e(Sudhir Chella Rajan)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmental Management 3.0: Connecting the Dots between Pollution, Sustainability, Transparency and Governance in Indonesia \u003ci\u003e(Shakeb Afsah and Nabiel Makarim)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmental Law, Policy, Governance and Management for Cities: Getting it right for a Sustainable Future — The Singapore Experience \u003ci\u003e(Lye Lin-Heng)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrade-offs and Synergies for Sustainable Development and Climate Stabilisation in Asian regions \u003ci\u003e(Keigo Akimoto, Fuminori Sano, Ayami Hayashi, Takashi Homma, Junichiro Oda, Kenichi Wada, Miyuki Nagashima, Kohko Tokushige and Toshimasa Tomoda)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eConcluding Thoughts:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFuture Environmental Challenges for Asia \u003ci\u003e(Shreekant Gupta)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Environmental policy students, general public interested in Asia and its challenges, policymakers, envrionmental professionals and practitioners.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150191214832,"sku":"9789814590495","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814590495_p0.jpg?v=1763692165","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814590495","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
