商品描述

This book articulates the traditional Japanese concept of conservation, called Satoyama, for effective management of nature's goods and services at a community-ecosystem interface in the climate milieu. The term Satoyama refers to socio-ecological production landscapes and seascapes, which are mosaics of diverse land uses and ecosystems that have long been shaped through sustainable human interactions with nature. This multilevel study of conservation science, therefore, serves an interdisciplinary academia, consistent with conventions on climate change, biodiversity and sustainable development, to establish links between conservation priorities and development objectives. In this book, the Satoyama is introduced as a rights-based neo-economic conservation paradigm for production-linked sustainable development, supplemented with case studies from Asia. The International Partnership for the Satoyama Initiative was established at the 10th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity in 2010 to protect and revitalise Satoyama. However, even after a decade, this panacea for sustainability remains unfulfilled for practitioners and policy planners in the global south. Satoyama have been disappearing as a result of irresponsible consumption of natural resources and drastically changing agro-farming practices, threatening wildlife inhabiting those areas as well as the life and livelihood of marginal communities in the vicinity. In consideration of the global pandemic crisis, the present monograph aims for introspection within a traditional sustainable practice of Asia to augment community resilience and preparedness.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書闡述了日本傳統的保育概念——里山（Satoyama），以便在氣候環境中有效管理社區生態系統界面的自然資源和服務。里山一詞指的是社會生態生產的景觀和海洋景觀，這些景觀是多樣化土地利用和生態系統的馬賽克，長期以來通過可持續的人類與自然互動而形成。因此，這項多層次的保育科學研究服務於跨學科的學術界，與氣候變遷、生物多樣性和可持續發展的公約一致，旨在建立保育優先事項與發展目標之間的聯繫。在本書中，里山被介紹為一種基於權利的新經濟保育範式，旨在促進與生產相關的可持續發展，並輔以來自亞洲的案例研究。里山倡議的國際夥伴關係於2010年在《生物多樣性公約》第十屆締約方會議上成立，旨在保護和振興里山。然而，即使經過十年，這一可持續性的萬能藥對於全球南方的實踐者和政策規劃者來說仍未實現。由於對自然資源的不負責任消耗以及農業耕作方式的劇變，里山正在消失，這威脅到棲息在這些地區的野生動物以及周邊邊緣社區的生活和生計。考慮到全球疫情危機，本專著旨在反思亞洲傳統可持續實踐，以增強社區的韌性和應變能力。
