Zusammenfassung: | "During the summer of 1992, the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro was hailed as a watershed moment in the ecology movement. Over 100 nations signed a new international treaty intended to conserve biological diversity. Yet, every day, species - many not even discovered - are driven into extinction and the ecological crisis remains a pressing global problem." "Stressing the need to build bridges between the scientific community and international policymakers, Timothy Swanson here develops a new theory of the interplay between human society and the biological world. Biodiversity regulation, he argues, must focus specifically on the regulation of the global economic forces driving species into extinction. As the global development process becomes increasingly sophisticated, the specter of a homogenized biosphere looms large." "Yet, while biological diversity is responsible for a host of global benefits, it confers few tangible gains upon individual nations comparable to the immediate advantages of exploiting these same natural resources. The same economic rationale that drives farmers to grow coca leaf instead of grain compels countries to exploit natural resources rather than conserve them. In order to stave off the decline of biological diversity, Swanson proposes the creation of specific policies that will internalize the benefits of biodiversity on a national level."--BOOK JACKET. |

"Yet, while biological diversity is responsible for a host of global benefits, it confers few tangible gains upon individual nations comparable to the immediate advantages of exploiting these same natural resources. The same economic rationale that drives farmers to grow coca leaf instead of grain compels countries to exploit natural resources rather than conserve them. In order to stave off the decline of biological diversity, Swanson proposes the creation of specific policies that will internalize the benefits of biodiversity on a national level."--BOOK JACKET.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Bedreigde soorten</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Biodiversiteit</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Biodiversité - Conservation - Coopération internationale</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Biodiversité - Conservation - Politique gouvernementale</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Développement économique - Aspect de l'environnement</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Economische ontwikkeling</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Extinction (Biologie)</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Natuurbehoud</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Politik</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Umwelt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Wirtschaftsentwicklung</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Biodiversity conservation</subfield><subfield code="x">Government policy</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Biodiversity conservation</subfield><subfield code="x">International cooperation</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Economic development</subfield><subfield code="x">Environmental aspects</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Extinction (Biology)</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Umweltpolitik</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4078523-3</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Artenreichtum</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4131912-6</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Wirtschaftswachstum</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4066527-6</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Internationale Kooperation</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4120503-0</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Artenreichtum</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4131912-6</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Umweltpolitik</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4078523-3</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Artenreichtum</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4131912-6</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Internationale Kooperation</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4120503-0</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="2" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Wirtschaftswachstum</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4066527-6</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="2" ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Umweltpolitik</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4078523-3</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="2" ind2=" "><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="2"><subfield code="m">HBZ Datenaustausch</subfield><subfield code="q">application/pdf</subfield><subfield code="u">http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=006511835&sequence=000002&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA</subfield><subfield code="3">Inhaltsverzeichnis</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="999" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">oai:aleph.bib-bvb.de:BVB01-006511835</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |

Press 1994 XIV, 289 S. graph. Darst. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier "During the summer of 1992, the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro was hailed as a watershed moment in the ecology movement. Over 100 nations signed a new international treaty intended to conserve biological diversity. Yet, every day, species - many not even discovered - are driven into extinction and the ecological crisis remains a pressing global problem." "Stressing the need to build bridges between the scientific community and international policymakers, Timothy Swanson here develops a new theory of the interplay between human society and the biological world. Biodiversity regulation, he argues, must focus specifically on the regulation of the global economic forces driving species into extinction. As the global development process becomes increasingly sophisticated, the specter of a homogenized biosphere looms large." "Yet, while biological diversity is responsible for a host of global benefits, it confers few tangible gains upon individual nations comparable to the immediate advantages of exploiting these same natural resources. The same economic rationale that drives farmers to grow coca leaf instead of grain compels countries to exploit natural resources rather than conserve them. In order to stave off the decline of biological diversity, Swanson proposes the creation of specific policies that will internalize the benefits of biodiversity on a national level."--BOOK JACKET.
