The need for biodiversity conservation is being strongly felt because we are experiencing an unprecedented increase in the rate of extinctions being caused by human actions. Extinction is a natural phenomenon, but what is different about current human caused extinction is both its rate and the fact that is leaves a void in the natural system (whereas in natural process one or more species are likely to get replaced than getting extinct.). Biodiversity is a fundamental concept in global environmental management today. It is usually regarded as an ecological idea, but it is also a political idea and a tool for managing non-human nature. A series of historical crises have reshaped the way the western world considers, defines and manages biodiversity. This paper uses the methods of cultural history to analyses the emergence of biodiversity as a driver and shaper of policies and international conservation conventions, particularly where the conventions are responding to alarm or crisis.

Biodiversity, ecosystem, Big Ecology, environmental justice.
