Economic liberalisation associated with globalisation is causing a pervasive growth of economic insecurity experienced all over the world. This is placing urgent demands on policymakers to rethink old policies and institutions.This book sets out a new approach to the assessment of income dynamics, based on identifying the diverse components of people’s income and entitlements. It defines ‘social income’ as a broader concept of household income which includes state, community and pr...

Emerging contaminants include an extensive array of synthetic chemicals in global use, such as plastic additives, microplastics, water disinfection byproducts, pharmaceuticals, man-made nanomaterials, and UV-filters. Because of their extensive use in anthropogenic activities, these chemicals are entering the environment at alarming levels as hazardous wastes and non-biodegradable substances. This book emphasizes on the comprehensive information on emerging contaminants overview, environmen...
