However, economic development has often come at the cost of environmental damage due to a lack of long-term planning and foresight. This edited volume addresses the intersection of population, development, and environmental issues in India, particularly in the post-liberalization era. The book contains 12 research papers exploring various aspects of the relationship between these factors, offering policy implications to mitigate environmental degradation and support sustainable development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is divided into three sections:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSection I: Population, Poverty, and Environment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis section examines the impact of land use changes, migration, and industrialization on the environment.
