American and Comparative Environmental Policy
The MIT Press series in American and Comparative Environmental Policy encourages work that examines a broad range of environmental policy issues, incorporating interdisciplinary research and focusing on the linkages between public policy and environmental problems and issues both within the United States and in cross-national settings. We especially encourage studies that assess policy successes and failures, evaluate new institutional arrangements and policy tools, and clarify new directions for environmental politics and policy. The books in this series are written for a wide audience that includes academics, policymakers, environmental scientists and professionals, business and labor leaders, environmental activists, and students concerned with environmental issues.
