ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY IN THE 1990S

This new edition puts 25 years of environmental policy development in context by examining the institutional framework for making policy, the role of environmentalism and public opinion in shaping policy, the search for more efficient policy solutions, and the impact of global environmental imperatives. This edition covers the new, heightened role of the states in making policy, environmental justice, and the greening of U.S. business, among other topics. The book also provides the first in-depth analysis of the impact of the 104th Congress on environmental policies, and reviews the Clinton Administration's environmental record and efforts to reform the Environmental Protection Agency.
