| Summary: | "This book is essential reading for policy-makers everywhere and at all levels, and for citizens who elect them.' Professor Robert Gifford, University of Victoria, Canada 'Lundqvist and Biel grapple with the serious problem of getting governments at different levels to cooperate in the struggle to solve environmental problems. The authors use social science principles to understand the conflicts that can arise in democracies that reflect local, national, regional and global constituencies. Given that these bodies set the policies that have crucial influence on the myriad acts contributing to environmental destruction, this book is essential reading for policy-makers everywhere and at all levels, and for citizens who elect them.' Professor Robert Gifford, University of Victoria, Canada 'Interesting read for politicians and decision-makers with a basic knowledge of climate and the international negotiations.' European Circular, Autumn 2007." |
