Klappentext
Reviews of the first edition: * "This is an excellent overview... [I]t will act as a great reference work for teachers and higher education students." -- British Ecological Society * "A highly useful reference and resource for all those involved in or studying environmental politics and policy, not just in the EU, but worldwide." -- IPC Journal * Fully revised edition with new sections covering the latest developments in EU environmental policy-making This second and fully revised edition brings together some of the most influential work on the theory and practice of contemporary EU environmental policy. Comprising five comprehensive parts, it includes in-depth case studies of contemporary policy issues such as climate change, genetically modified organisms and trans-Atlantic relations; and an assessment of how well the EU is responding to new challenges such as enlargement, environmental policy integration and sustainability. The book's aim is to look forward and ask whether the EU is prepared or even able to respond to the 'new' governance challenges posed by the perceived need to use 'new' policy instruments and processes to 'mainstream' environmental thinking in all EU policy sectors.
