The 3rd International Conference on Law, Education and Social Sciences (ICLSSE) 2021 is an international forum to disseminate knowledge and research development among researchers, scholars, professionals, and those interested in research interests Law and Social Sciences and Social Education. This conference was organized by the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences, Universitas Pendidikan Ganesha. The theme of this third conference: "Social Resilience in a Post-Pandemic Era".

As an academician, we all have to study how in this new normal era we are trying to increase socio-cultural, socio-psychological, and socio-economic resilience of the society through various innovations that can be developed together in research activities in the field of social sciences and law in general. So this conference can become a good vehicle for us to share all experiences and ideas about increasing social resilience in a post-pandemic era from many perspectives of Law, Social Science, and Social Education in general.
Examine why illegal logging is so pervasive—and how this problem can be addressed In March 2002, the Yale chapter of the International Society of Tropical Foresters brought together social and natural scientists, resource managers, policymakers, community leaders, and other interested parties to share experiences, strategies, successes, and failures in addressing illegal logging and corruption.

This book responds to the call for more research on transnational environmental crime and its governance by investigating the illegal trade in electronic waste (e-waste) and tropical timber, major forms of transnational environmental crime. The book is based on a qualitative multi-method research combining document analysis, interviews with key informants and field visits. Bisschop focuses on the flows that pass through the research setting of the Port of Antwerp (Belgium) and those between Europe and West and Central Africa. The study examines the emergence and social organization of these transnational environmental flows, illustrating that although profit or lure play a very important role, a range of factors on individual, organizational and societal levels together provide the motivations and opportunities. Building on these insights, the book addresses the governance of these two cases. The responsive regulatory pyramid and networked governance are used as theoretical frameworks for this analysis. This book is essential reading for scholars and academics interested in transnational environmental crime and corporate crime, as well as governance studies.
