Beskrivning
Beyond the tropical paradise and beyond the fear of climate change effects, the Maldives is a fascinating island country that faces social, cultural, economic and environmental transformations. Atolls of the Maldives: Nissology and Geography provides a spatial analysis on some key challenges the Maldivian society has to deal with, and guides the reader in the discovery of the human and environmental geography of this Indian Ocean archipelago. Geographers, political scientists, sociologists, geologists, biologists and experts in environmental policies help the audience to move through the complex systems of interrelations, connections and disconnections that shape the environment and the geography of this extraordinary archipelagic country.

Recensioner i media

It is exciting to see such a wide-ranging volume, bringing to the world the richness of a culture and country too often seen as being for only tourism and climate change vulnerability. From gender to water management and from energy to activism, the book builds up an important picture of a fascinating archipelago.
