About this book

Founded on the core notion that we have reached a turning point in the governance, and thus the conservation, of ecosystems and the environment, Governing the Provision of Ecosystem Services features more than 20 original chapters, each informed by the paradigm shift in the sector over the last decade.

Where once the emphasis was on strategies for conservation, enacted through instruments of control such as planning and 'polluter pays' legislation, more recent developments have shown a shift towards incentive-based arrangements aimed at those responsible for providing the environmental services enabled by such ecosystems. Encouraging shared responsibility for watershed management, developed in Costa Rica, is a prime example, and the various interests involved in its instauration in Java are one of the subjects examined here in Governing the Provision of Ecosystem Services.
