Green Asia: Ecocultures, Sustainable Lifestyles, and Ethical Consumption

Economic development in Asia is associated with expanding urbanism, overconsumption, and a steep growth in living standards. These rapid changes have led to fundamental shifts in the way ecological concerns are articulated politically and culturally. This book presents an analysis of a range of practices and activities from across Asia which demonstrate that people in Asia are alert to ecological concerns, that they are taking action to implement new styles of green living, and that Asia offers interesting alternatives to narrow Anglo-American models of sustainable living.
