Description - Environment and Politics by Timothy Doyle
Environment and Politics is a concise introduction to the study of environmental politics, explaining the key concepts, conflicts, political systems and the practices of policy-making. The authors examine a diverse range of environmental problems and policy solutions within different nations and cultures. Focusing on the multitude of green political responses that have emerged in the last decade to solve environmental problems worldwide, Environmental Politics examines institutional responses of parliaments, administrative and electoral systems, the more informal politics of non-governmental organisations and social movements, and the politics of business as it responds to the greening of our society. This second edition of Environmental Politics provides new material on climate change, the role of the World Trade Organisation and the rise and politics of the 'wise use' movement in America. The chapter on political parties has been fully revised and case studies have been updated and new examples added throughout the book.
Environmental Politics draws on a wealth of original examples from North and South America, Europe, Asia and Australia, this book offers a greater understanding of international, national and local environmental politics and looks at future developments for effective local and international environmental diplomacy and both global and region-specific problem solving.
