Transatlantic Environment and Energy Politics: Comparative and International Perspectives: Global Environmental Governance

Editat de Miranda A. Schreurs, Henrik Selin, Stacy D. VanDeVeer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 feb 2009
Environmental and energy policies have become increasingly significant in European and North American politics. This fascinating book uses a wide range of case studies that embrace climate change, product standards, chemical regulations, renewable energy policies, food safety and genetically-modified organisms to examine areas of conflict and cooperation in the transatlantic relationship. While there are many areas where the European Union and the United States are following divergent policy paths, there are also many signs that a more cooperative transatlantic relationship could emerge in the future. Transatlantic Environment and Energy Politics is highly relevant to understanding how the European Union and North America can cooperate more effectively in meeting today's many global environmental and energy policy challenges. It is essential reading for all advanced students and scholars.

Recenzii

' ...offers an outstanding collection of cutting-edge research on environment and energy politics. Due to its both international and comparative focus, it is of great interest for academics as well as professionals and policy analysts. The book includes valuable insights not only for those interested in these policy areas, but also for readers interested in global governance more generally.' Christoph Knill, University of Konstanz, Germany 'A valuable and much needed contribution to the comparative study of European and American regulatory policies. Its comprehensive and exhaustively researched essays present a fascinating and informative portrait of the distinctive ways policy-makers on both sides of the Altantic have addressed - or failed to address - a wide range of contemporary regulatory issues and problems.' David Vogel, University of California, Berkeley, USA 'There is an assumption amongst environmental policy analysts that European laws and policies are much stronger than those in North America. This comprehensive, coherent and thought provoking volume brings together a strong team of scholars from both sides of the Atlantic to assess whether this widely shared view has any basis in reality.' Andrew Jordan, University of East Anglia, UK
