‘There is much that is of interest in this book. The individual essays read in isolation are useful analyses of their particular subject-matter.’ – Cliona Kimber, Local Environment
‘. . . the book provides a successful treatise of how federal and confederal systems influence environmental policy. The covered theoretical concepts are excellently reflected in the chosen empirical cases.’ – Stephan Schaltegger, Kyklos
Which level of government is most appropriate for environmental policy making in a confederal or federal system? How does the level of government at which policy is made and implemented affect the choice of policy instruments? This important new volume addresses these problems by comparing environmental policies and practices in the European Union (EU) and the United States (US).
