Sustainable Development of the North Atlantic Margin: Selected Contributions to the Thirteenth International Seminar on Marginal Regions (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781138344884)

First published in 1997, this timely collection of papers takes an interdisciplinary approach to examining sustainable development in a wide range of countries such as Ireland, Norway and Wales on the North Atlantic Margin. It features specialists in geography, social anthropology, tourism, sociology, regional studies, business, municipality studies, health policy and the rural economy. The contributors argue that a free marketplace and natural-resource sustainability are not always incompatible for green policies to be successful.
