Environmental Governance in Latin America

This edited collection addresses the tensions of unequal power relations, conflicting priorities, and trade-offs among multiple goals in resource-rich regions of Latin America. It accomplishes this by unpacking environmental governance as a complex process of formulating and contesting values, procedures and practices shaping the access, control and use of natural resources. Contributors from various fields address the challenges, limitations, and possibilities for a more sustainable, equal, and fair development.
