Während Industrieländer vor dem Problem schrumpfender Gesellschaften stehen, sind Entwicklungsländer mit den Folgen von Urbanisierung, Migration und Bevölkerungswachstum konfrontiert. Welche Auswirkungen hat diese Entwicklung auf die Versorgung mit Wasser, Nahrung und anderen Ressourcen? Die Autorinnen und Autoren untersuchen Entwicklungen in Afrika, Asien, dem Nahen Osten und Deutschland und zeigen, wie Versorgungssysteme an demografische Veränderungen angepasst werden können.

Introduction: Supplying the population as societal and scientific challenge
Diana Hummel
Part A: The analytical framework
Diana Hummel, Christine Hertler, Steffen Niemann, Alexandra Lux, Cedric Janowicz
1 The demographic background

2 The central analytical concept: Supply systems
The basis of sustainable development 38 - The dynamics of societal relations to nature 40 - Social-ecological systems 43 - Conceptual model of supply systems 47 - Social-ecological problem complexes within supply systems 51 - Peculiarities of, and linkages between, water and food supply systems 55 - Social-ecological transformations 57
3 Research object: Interactions between demographic processes and transformations of supply systems
Demographic factors relevant to supply systems 59 - Modeling related problems 62 - Problems related to the dynamics of demographic processes 63 - Regulation related problems 66 - Case studies 68
Part B: Case studies
Christine Hertler
