The  book addresses a fundamental issue in environment: if  nature is no longer available as a limitless resource,  how has the policy discourse on the environmental crisis  come to view it, value it, and live with it? Analysing  policy instruments across sectors that respond to local  ecological conflicts and challenges, the book offers a  conceptual understanding of how natural elements are  transformed into mobile, tradable commodities through the  use of market-based instruments.  0aEnvironmental policyxEconomic aspects. 0aSustainable development.1 aKohli, Kanchi,eeditor.1 aMenon, Manju,eeditor.
