Description: "In this major review of New Zealand's reform of environmental administration and planning, Ali Menon traces the difficult development of legislation to cater for all interests: agricultural and conservationist, social and business, Maori and Pakeha. The reforms which resulted, especially those by the fourth Labour government after 1984, represent a rare and significant national experiment in turning sustainable management into law. His study will be invaluable to university teachers and students in geography, planning, law and environmental science, and to all those concerned with planning in government and non-government agencies"--Back cover.
