Title: THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
Description: Why is it that market instruments have not been used to their full potential in environmental policy? Using a public choice perspective, this book critically analyses the political economy of environmental policy with special emphasis on the role of powerful interest groups which have blocked the introduction of market instruments. The Political Economy of Environmental Policy will be of interest to environmental and ecological economists, policy makers, political scientists and public choice scholars.
