II. Scope & Description

For more than 45 years the International Journal of Environmental Studies has been preeminent in its field. The environment is understood to comprise the natural and the manmade and their interactions including such matters as pollution health effects analytical methods political approaches social impacts etc. Papers favouring an interdisciplinary approach are preferred because the evidence of more than 45 years appears to be that many intellectual tools and many causes and effects are at issue in any environmental problemand its solution. This does not mean that a single focus or a narrow view is unwelcome provided always that the evidence is indicated and the method is robust. Pragmatic decisionmaking and applicable policies are subjects of interest together with the problems in establishing facts about dynamic systems where long periods of observation and precise measurement may be difficult to secure.In other words a systems or holistic approach to the environment and a scientific analysis are complementary and the distinction between hard and soft science is bridged in most of the papers published.These may be on any item in the agenda of environmental science land water food conservation population risk analysis energy economics of ecological and nonecological approaches social advocacy of arguments for change legal measures implications of urbanism energy choices waste disposal recycling transport systems and other issues of mass society. There is concern also for marginal areas underdeveloped societies minorities species loss and indeed no element of the subject of environmental studies seen in an international and interactive mode is excluded.
