Title: Energy Politics and Schumpeter Dynamics
Description: This comprehensive treatment of present Japanese energy-policy making demonstrates structural identities among the highly industrialized countries, in spite of geographical, historical and political particularities of Japan. Through a conflict with short-term wealth orientation, the industrialized world is slowly heading towards two new paradigms, that of natural resources protection and the opposite one of global eco-engineering in order to substitute nature by an enlarged technosphere.
