The improvement in living conditions of the inhabitants of the Third World involves both economic growth and ambient ecological conditions. Development of a country implies improvements in both spheres, yet these two factors are often in conflict. Ecology and Development in the Third World introduces the links between problems of environmental degradation, economic development and population pressure in the Third World. Drawing on example from a wide range of countries, this book explains the machinery of environmental protection and stresses the importance of an integrated approach to ecodevelopment which applies technical, social, economic and political solutions to environmental problems.
