520 _a "Recent claims regarding convergence and divergence between land cha nge science and political ecology as approaches to the study of human-e nvironment relationships and sustainability science are examined and an alysed in this innovative volume. Comprised of twelve commissioned chap ters as well as introductory and concluding/synthesis chapters, it adva nces the two fields by proposing new conceptual and methodological appr oaches toward integrating land change science and political ecology. Th e book also identifies areas of fundamental difference and disagreement between fields. These theoretical contributions will help a generation of young researchers refine their research approaches and will advance a debate among established scholars in geography, land use studies and sustainability science that has been developing in recent years. At an empirical level, case studies focusing on sustainable development are included from Africa, Central and South America, and South-east Asia. T he specific topics addressed include tropical deforestation, swidden ag riculture, mangrove forests, gender and household issues"--
