SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This volume explores the interconnections between institutional, socio-cultural, political, technological, and ecological systems in the production and management of risks and vulnerabilities associated with long-lived hazards left in environmental media. The perspective of this volume is interdisciplinary. Its aim is to explore the many dimensions of the "long-term stewardship" problem so that robust strategies can be crafted."--Jacket.
