Editorial Reviews
Review
'Not many books establish themselves as classics in such a short space of time. This one has. All the breadth, depth, lucidity and originality of the first edition are present in this fully updated and uprated second one. If there's a bookshelf or a reading list without Politics and the Environment now is the time to put things right.' - Andrew Dobson, Open University.
'An excellent textbook, offering the best introduction to environmental politics currently on the market.' - Tim S. Gray, University of Newcastle
From the Back Cover
'An excellent textbook, offering the best introduction to environmental politics currently on the market.' - Tim S. Gray
Politics and the Environment has established itself as the most comprehensive textbook in this area. This new edition has been completely revised and updates whilst retaining the features and theory to practice focus which made the first edition so successful.
The book is designed to introduce students to the key concepts and issues which surround environmental problems and their political solutions. The authors investigate the people, movements and organisations that form and implement these policies, and explore the barriers which hinder successful introduction of international environmental politics.
This new edition has been expanded to include: *A reorganized structure divided into three thematic sections *A wide range of case studies from around the world at the en of each chapter *More boxed examples and concepts *Further detail on ecological modernization * An extended further reading list including useful websites
This textbook is an invaluable and accessible resource for undergraduates studying politics.
