Worth Saving: International Diplomacy to Protect the Environment de Anne Egelston

Worth Saving: International Diplomacy to Protect the Environment: AESS Interdisciplinary Environmental Studies and Sciences Series

Autor Anne Egelston
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 sep 2023
This textbook is intended to be used in an upper-level international environmental issues class as part of the American Environmental Studies and Sciences book series. This class is commonly taught at both the undergraduate and graduate level as part of either an environmental studies program, a political science program, or within a policy track of an environmental science program.


Given the length of time that negotiations have occurred, a new generation of students and practitioners will need to understand the complex processes that produced many of our environmental treaties. The majority of the students in environmental studies do not have a background in political science. Moving from a political science approach to an interdisciplinary approach will benefit the students by making the material more accessible.

As these fields continue to grow and develop, regulatory compliance becomes increasingly important. Thus, this book is aimed at adding a business and industry perspective to this field where appropriate.
