ECOLOGICAL ECONOMICS ENCYCLOPAEDIA

An introduction Hello and welcome to the Online Encylopedia of Ecological Economics (OEEE), published by the International Society for Ecological Economics (ISEE). The purpose of the OEEE is to provide students, academics, journalists, activists, policy makers and everybody else interested with a first-hand introduction to many of the topics at the heart of ecological economic analysis. Most of the entries you will find in this encylopedia not only provide a detailed analysis of the specific topic, but also discuss the distinct contribution of ecological economics. References - some electronic, others conventionally published as books or journal articles - provide further leads and help you grasp a better understanding of the topic.
