Reviews

This amount on the history of tortuous paths taken by the negotiations of IPBES is extremely well documented for all that relates to the international stage. The theoretical development of concern highlighted by the use of the concept of epistemic selectivity does not affect its main merit fulfilling the thankless task of clearing of a field of international action through the social sciences, almost in time real. - Florian Charvolin
