Bilateral Ecopolitics

Continuity and Change in Canadian-American Environmental Relations

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The context in which environmental policy decision-making occurs has changed, resulting from widening environmental problems, increased demands from groups and citizens, continuing pressure on the continent's resources and normative shifts. This volume studies the new dimensions of resource conflict between Canada and the United States, accounting for the emergence of new bilateral environmental issues and detailing how trade liberalization has fostered both disputes and policy convergence.
