The authors recognize that, despite the new pressures of global economic competition and rapid technological change, the state remains the preeminent institution with the capacity and authority to secure environmental protection. The book explores the possibilities for the "greening" of the state, domestically and internationally, looking at states both as individual governments and in multilateral or regional regimes. It examines cases in North America, Europe, Australia, and the Philippines and analyzes the broader theoretical implications. The first part of the book focuses on domestic environmental governance, with both single and comparative case studies that range from the potential emergence of an "ecological state" paralleling the development of the welfare state to the theory and practice of environmental justice in the United States. The book's second part addresses the role of the state in transnational environmental governance and looks at topics including environmental rights in the European Union, hybrid forms of governance involving both state and nonstate actors, and an alternative foundation for global environmental governance. Each chapter not only offers a critical analysis of current developments but also identifies new initiatives and opportunities that may accelerate environmental progress. 001386351 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386351 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy. 001386351 650_0 $$aInternational relations$$xEnvironmental aspects. 001386351 650_0 $$aInternational economic relations$$xEnvironmental aspects. 001386351 653__ $$aENVIRONMENT/Environmental Politics & Policy 001386351 653__ $$aSOCIAL SCIENCES/Political Science/International Relations & Security 001386351 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386351 7001_ $$aBarry, John,$$d1966- 001386351 7001_ $$aEckersley, Robyn,$$d1958- 001386351 852__ $$bebk 001386351 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/6439.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386351 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386351 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386351$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386351 980__ $$aBIB 001386351 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386351 982__ $$aEbook 001386351 983__ $$aOnline
