摘要 | This volume began with the premise that the scientific analysis of population and environment interactions constitutes an emerging distinct field of studies, which like any other scientific field requires its own set of methodologies. This field of studies, however, is more complex than many other fields because it touches upon a large number of interlinked issues from the natural sciences and social sciences, involving contributions from several disciplines with differing research paradigms and different standard tools and methods of analysis. This inherent complexity of the new field so far has resulted in a high degree of methodological confusion. This is in contrast to the relatively simple research question that constitutes the field: What are the effects of changes in the human population on the natural environment (P-E)? This question has a complement, which closes the cycle of interaction: What are the effects of changes in the natural environment on the human population (E-P)? |
