  • - An Institutional and Evolutionary Approach to Environmental Policy
     
    1.833,95 kr.

    This book is designed for those scholars, students, policy-makers - or just curious readers - who are looking for heterodox thinking on the issue of environmental economics and policy. Contributions to this book draw on multiple streams of institutional and evolutionary economics and help build an approach to environmental policy that radically diverges from mainstream prescriptions. Institutions and technologies - and not only markets - are at the heart of a systemic and dynamic analysis of those structural changes which are needed to create a sustainable economy. Actors for change - and their ability to influence politics and policy - are explicitly taken into consideration. These issues are analyzed from different viewpoints by contributors to the book: some focus on behavior and institutions, others analyze the interaction of economic and technological dynamics; some provide sectoral case studies and others have the ambition to provide the reader with an overall picture. But all authors view environmental policy as a combination of actions that can trigger - and make viable - those structural changes which are needed to reach sustainability.

    Increasing scarcity of land and the consequential strengthening of policy targets pertaining to waste disposal, recovery and generation, has generated a need for empirical analyses that will aid policy effectiveness, while taking into account the relevance of specific regional features and the impact of a comprehensive set of socio-economic drivers. New strands of microeconomic and macroeconomic analyses inspired by the Environmental Kuznets curve literature have emerged during the past years, enlarging the previously heavy managerial focus to bring in wider economic considerations, and complementing the historically stronger literature on the valuation of waste related externalities. The book aims to provide guidelines for policymakers in gathering contributions of both a theoretical and empirical nature that cover and address waste management and disposal issues, embedding them in spatial, systemic and trade related frameworks.
