better understood by dividing the postwar period into three periods defined by two landmark
meetings: the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, which was convened in
Stockholm in June1972 and the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development,
known as the Earth Summit, which was held in Rio de Janeiro in June 1992. The first, or preStockholm era, extends to 1968, the year in which the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution to
convene the Stockholm Conference four years later . The second, or the Stockholm era, spans two
decades, from 1968 to 1987…The third, or Rio de Janeiro era, commences in 1987 with the release of

2006: 28-29). Research Contribution in ISRJ :
