Description

This book, originally published in 1995, examines the evolution of environmental policy in 6 OECD countries.

Through numerous examples, it contrasts the widely-varying political and regulatory styles and their consequences for innovation.

Two industry-specific case studies provide a transnational perspective on the co-evolution of technology and environmental policy.

The book concludes that innovation can be successfully harnessed by setting credible, long-term environmental goals and ensuring that regulatory instruments are grounded in flexibility, dialogue and trust.
