The North African Environment At Risk (Westview Series on State, Culture and Society in Arab North Africa) - Softcover
Synopsis
This volume explores the broad range of human activities causing the deterioration of North Africa's fragile environment, including population pressure and poverty, urbanization, competition for land and water, and mismanagement of natural resources. Looking in particular at the conflict between economic development and environmental sustainability, contributors analyze the historical roots of environmental problems, the underlying socio-economic causes, potential solutions, and differences in policies among various countries. This provides a portrait of a developing region attempting to reconcile traditional methods of land use with growing demands for resources and the limitations of its natural-resource base.
