Recenzii

We know that there will be no solution to the climate change problem without China's active participation, but on what principles of justice should this participation be based? Here, for the first time, a group of outstanding scholars tests a series of ideas against the Chinese case, and teases out the policy implications. This is an indispensable guide to a sustainable future. Andrew Dobson, Professor of Politics, Keele University

...an important addition to the field. Miranda Schreurs, Freie Universitat Berlin
