Gender Inequalities in Africa’s Mining Policies: A Study of Inequalities, Resource Conflict and Sustainability
ISBN: 9789811682544 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The book addresses the urgent need for rethinking the geopolitics and ecology in the Himalaya, by emphasising the entanglements between these two factors. Most international relations analyses of the Himalaya emphasize the central role of the region’s states and their great power struggles.
