Ця стаття узагальнює аргументи та контраргументи в межах наукової дискусії з питань біорізноманіття як ступеня стійкості біологічної системи. Основною метою проведеного дослідження є визначення проблем та наслідків збереження біорізноманіття в країнах Південної Азії. В статті розглянуто поточний стан біорізноманіття в Бангладеш, Індії, Непалі та Пакистані. Визначено, що біологічному різноманіттю серйозно загрожують прямі та непрямі дії людей у найбільш густонаселених регіонах світу. Підкреслюється, що окремі види флори та фауни цих країн знаходяться на межі вимирання, а існуючі загрози біорізноманіттю можуть провокувати серйозні екологічні наслідки, такі як повені та зміна клімату. Актуальність вирішення даної наукової проблеми полягає в тому, що існує нагальна потреба в інституційній підтримці та розвитку надійної інформаційної системи збереження біорізноманіття на різних рівнях, яка відсутня в цих країнах. Зазначається, що в умовах відсутності сильної інституційної структури для здійснення моніторингу біорізноманіття багато районів у зазначених країнах перетворилися на гарячі точки. На основі проведеного дослідження доводиться, що управління біорізноманіттям не може бути відокремленим від економічної діяльності, політичної стабільності та ефективної адміністративної системи. Дослідження емпірично підтверджує та теоретично доводить, що зазначена проблематика загострюється тим, що країни функціонують у нестабільних умовах, тобто умовах невизначеності, тому важко досягти збереження біорізноманіття. Зазначається, що найбільш придатною моделлю для посилення справедливості в сфері збереження біорізноманіття є суспільно-орієнтовані підходи, які допоможуть місцевим жителям забезпечити стійкі засоби до існування біологічних ресурсів. Результати проведеного дослідження можуть бути корисними для економістів, екологів, захисників навколишнього середовища, політиків та інших сторін, зацікавлених у вирішенні цієї проблеми.

Ключові слова: Південна Азія, транскордонний, інститут, біорізноманіття, ліси, гарячі точки, збереження.
