500 _aThe Ramsar Convention was established in 1971 to ensure the conservation and wise use of wetlands across the world. India joined the Convention in 1982, however, in the past 50 years, despite Ramsar's incredible achievements, the threat to wetlands across the globe, including India, has not diminished. This book studies the governance of multiuse wetlands in Inda. The volume provides an exhaustive analysis of rural, peri-urban, and urban human-made wetlands to establish the relevance of institutional design and the effective role of authority in governing multiuse wetlands ecosystem services. The author argues that the most challenging task in governing wetlands is to frame institutional choices that users and non-users can comprehend and agree to pursue under alternative property rights regimes. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, the book provides a broad look into the causes and consequences of wetland ecosystem degradation and offers insights into improved sustainable management systems of different types of multiuse wetlands.....(Information from the book)
