Description

Explore the complex history of environmental protection in this academic volume from the Routledge Environmental Humanities series. The Nature State examines how conservation efforts have evolved throughout the twentieth century, focusing on the role of the state as a primary actor in managing the natural world. By introducing the concept of the nature state, this book provides a new way to study how government institutions were formed specifically to protect and manage ecosystems. The text moves beyond traditional views to look at how the state functions as a central force in environmental policy and management. This collection includes diverse case studies from across the globe, including China, Latin America, the Philippines, Namibia, India, and Europe. It provides essential context for understanding how human population growth and consumption patterns following the Industrial Revolution have shaped our modern approach to the environment.
