Книга "Trade-offs in Conservation" демонстрирует, как важны компромиссы для защитников природы. В различных главах показывается, как и почему принимаются эти компромиссы и почему защитники природы должны очень серьезно задуматься о том, что, если вообще, делать с ними. Книга утверждает, что защитники природы должны тщательно взвешивать и явно выражать компромиссы, которые они делают каждый день, решая, что сохранять. Ключевые особенности: обсуждает более широкие не-биологические вопросы, которые окружают принятие решений о том, какие виды и биогеографические области следует приоритезировать для сохранения; фокусируется на вопросах, таких как: какие факторы должны быть включены в нашу оценку компромиссов? какую информацию и вопросы должны рассматривать менеджеры для принятия рационального решения? кто должен принимать такие решения? Часть серии книг "Conservation Science and Practice". Эта книга будет интересна политикам, исследователям, практикам и аспирант
The book explains that although conservation is often portrayed as deals between good outcomes for nature and fair costs for humans, trade-offs (decisions that need to be made) are often involved. These trade-offs may involve species selection, biodiversity plans, economic developments, local livelihoods and other matters, so it is crucial in conservation thinking to consider what coexistence with humans might mean along with what benefits conservation has. In this book you will find out more about the ways in which conservation often involves making tricky decisions. Comprising over twenty short chapters in total, this volume caters for policy-makers in government and non-governmental organisations, researchers conducting biodiversity studies, practitioners making day-to-day decisions and those studying for postgraduate conservation degrees.
This book analyses the struggle that conservation officers face when faced with the dilemma. It proves that the effects of the trade-off options can be critical for all conservation professionals. Chapters display exactly how and why the disputes take place, as well as how conservation officers must ponder what to opt for very gratuitously. The text claims that conservation police must scale up their drawbacks diligently and verbosely, providing a rundown of the pace they tend each day when choosing what is crucial to save.

This book demonstrates that trade-offs can be very important for conservationists. Its various chapters show how and why trade-offs are made, and why conservationists need to think very hard about what, if anything, to do about them. The book argues that conservationists must carefully weigh up, and be explicit about, the trade-offs that they make every day in deciding what to save. Key Features: Discusses the wider non-biological issues that surround making decisions about which species and biogeographic areas to prioritise for conservation Focuses on questions such as: What are these wider issues that are influencing the decisions we make? What factors need to be included in our assessment of trade-offs? What package of information and issues do managers need to consider in making a rational decision? Who should make such decisions? Part of the Conservation Science and Practice book series This volume is of interest to policy-makers, researchers, practitioners and postgraduate students who are concerned about making decisions that include recognition of trade-offs in conservation planning.
