This comprehensive book makes a significant contribution to the ongoing multidisciplinary discourse surrounding social-ecological systems (SES) within the context of reimagining the interplay between these systems, particularly in the Anthropocene Era. The majority of chapters engage in thoughtful deliberations on the dynamics of risks that pose a threat to current SES or provoke introspection to effectively manage these risks and their detrimental consequences. After thoroughly examining the primary drivers of SES vulnerability, the book underscores the necessary shifts required to enhance the sustainability and resilience of these systems. These include the integration and restructuring of governance frameworks, the reorganization of production and consumption systems that deviate from conventional models rooted in consumerism, the development of comprehensive mitigation, adaptation, and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) implementation measures that prioritize co-benefits, and the thoughtful consideration of appropriate approaches and paradigms when designing and implementing response mechanisms.

This volume holds immense relevance for researchers, experts, students, practitioners, and decision-makers operating at various scales and spheres. Its insights and recommendations offer valuable guidance for navigating the complex challenges and opportunities associated with SES in the Anthropocene era. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and promoting a holistic understanding of these systems, this book contributes to the development of more resilient and sustainable societies.
