Description
The purpose of this collected volume of essays is to build on and contribute to the larger conceptual literature on environment and security. In particular, the book seeks to fill one of the glaring gaps within this stream of scholarship- the inadequate number of existing case studies for South Asia and its component territories. Written entirely by the leading scholars from South Asia, the book examines a region that is the setting for some of the most important environmental security challenges of our time.

Reviews
-
Environment, Development and Human Society is a worthy contribution to...environment-security scholarship. The book's empirical focus...reminds academics to stay grounded instead of drifting away from practitioners' concerns.

This work provides strong support for the relevance and prescience of human security. By moving beyond the often narrow academic debate, the authors show that a change in security thinking is needed and wanted on the ground, remarkably doing so in a region typically hostile to any questioning of national authority.
