Climate change and the loss of ecosystem services are the two main global environmental crises facing us today. As a result, there is a need for better understanding of the specific and general resilience of networked ecosystems, cities, organisations and institutions to cope with change. In this book, an international team of experts provide cutting-edge insights into building the resilience and adaptive governance of complex social-ecological systems. Through a set of case studies, it focuses on the social science dimension of ecosystem management in the context of global change, in a move to bridge existing gaps between resilience, sustainability and social science. Using empirical examples ranging from local to global levels, views from a variety of disciplines are integrated to provide an essential resource for scholars, policy-makers and students, seeking innovative approaches to governance. 606 $aEnvironmental management$xSocial aspects 606 $aEcosystem management$xSocial aspects 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aGlobalization$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aGlobal governance 615 0$aEnvironmental management$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aEcosystem management$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 0$aGlobalization$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aGlobal governance. 676 $a333.7 702 $aBoyd$b Emily 702 $aFolke$b Carl 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457499003321 996 $aAdapting institutions$92483412 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04367oam 22009614a 450 001 9910139532803321 005 20250709213938.0 010 $a9786613667595 010 $a9780776627205 010 $a0776627201 010 $a9781280690655 010 $a1280690658 010 $a9780776617800 010 $a077661780X 024 8 $a10.26530/OAPEN_578788 035 $a(CKB)2550000000017429 035 $a(EBL)565332 035 $a(OCoLC)606323870 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000457321 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11329067 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000457321 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10415250 035 $a(PQKB)10303821 035 $a(CaPaEBR)430570 035 $a(CaBNvSL)slc00224256 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3268379 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse5776 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC565332 035 $a(FrMaCLE)OB-uop-1134 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/43823 035 $a(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/dg8z63 035 $a(PPN)238415597 035 $a(ScCtBLL)ba2735d0-54ec-4fa6-a5c0-77d9c5640c89 035 $a(OCoLC)1163833713 035 $a(FR-PaCSA)88867961 035 $a(FRCYB88867961)88867961 035 $a(oapen)doab37335 035 $a(oapen)doab43823 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000017429 100 $a20090128d2009 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn#---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aConfronting Discrimination and Inequality in China$eChinese and Canadian Perspectives /$fedited by Errol P.

The Canadian contributors offer rich regional, national, and international perspectives on how constitutions, laws, policies, and practices, both in Canada and in other parts of the world, battle discrimination and the conflicts that rise out of it. The Chinese contributors include some of the most independent-minded scholars and practitioners in China. Their assessments of the challenges facing China in the areas of discrimination and inequality not only attest to their personal courage and intellectual freedom but also add an important perspective on this emerging superpower. 410 0$aActexpress. 606 $aPolitical Science / Comparative Politics$2bisacsh 606 $aPolitical Science / Privacy & Surveillance$2bisacsh 606 $aPolitical science 607 $aChina$xSocial policy 607 $aChina$xSocial conditions$y2000- 607 $aChina$xSocial conditions$y1976-2000 607 $aChine$xPolitique sociale 607 $aChine$xConditions sociales$y2000- 607 $aChine$xConditions sociales$y1976-2000 607 $aChina$2swd 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aPolitical Science / Comparative Politics 615 7$aPolitical Science / Privacy & Surveillance 615 0$aPolitical science. 676 $a305.0951 700 $aSakunthala Srighanthan$4auth$01356909 701 $aMendes$b Errol$01143260 701 $aSrighanthan$b Sakanthala$f1950-$01242636 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910139532803321 996 $aConfronting Discrimination and Inequality in China$93362003 997 $aUNINA
