Book

Understanding Environmental Policy Processes: Cases from Africa

Published on 1 January 2003

“This is a book that policy-makers must not be allowed to ignore! Drawing on their extensive research in three countries, Keeley and Scoones show how environmental knowledge is constructed by the interplay of politics and science, generating beliefs and policies. Its insights carry powerful and important messages for policy-makers, scientists, researchers, academics, donors and those engaged in policy advocacy and influence”.
