Governing the Environment

Edited by Albert Breton, Giorgio Brosio, Silvana Dalmazzone and Giovanna Garrone

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Environmental policy, focusing on the control of pollution and on over-exploitation, easily overlooks the extensive range of interconnections between economic activities and natural systems. In this timely book, a number of specialists examine how crucial aspects of complex environmental problems and policy can be dealt with in decentralized governmental systems.
