Natural Resources Law: Concepts and Approaches makes a significant contribution to the field of natural resources law. This book is a result of collective research by eminent judges, legal academicians, researchers, and students exploring different angles of natural resources, their sustainable development, and conservation for future generations. It analyses the constitutional provisions as well as the international framework on natural resources.
This book also addresses the critical objective of sustainable management of resources in context of legal, socio-cultural, economic, political and various other approaches. It explores how the management of conflict and the link between self-help initiatives and natural resource conservation can be primary approaches for sustainable development.
It explores the need for preservation of natural resources for future generations, along with the case for development for the present generation. Its essential posture is that an integrated approach involving all stakeholders, beneficiaries, victims, and active involvement of society in the task of conservation is practical wisdom.
