Book Description
The Politics of Environmental Reform demonstrates how environmental laws affect local governments with Kentucky strip mining as its core example. Originally published in 1976, Landy’s research into environmental legislation in a state whose economy relies on the coal industry can easily be applied to all forms of government shedding light on issues such as policy initiation, federal-state relations and regulatory performance. This title will be of interest to students of Environmental Studies and professionals.

Resources and People in East Kentucky

Book Description
"Surely one of the most intractable of modern social and economic problems is that of the depressed region. As economic changes sweep across the country inevitably certain geographic areas become stranded just as others receive unexpected and perhaps unearned benefits. In those areas put at a disadvantage--whether the cause is a waning natural resource, a shift in the location of markets, or some inability of business, labor, or government to adjust to change--distress is likely to be severe, and more severe the longer this condition persists. East Kentucky, the region under study in this book, is such a place, and has been for some years past."--preface.

Harlan Miners Speak
Author: Members of the National Committee for the DefensePublisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813185475
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
The Dreiser Committee, including writers Theodore Dreiser, John Dos Passos, and Sherwood Anderson, investigated the desperate situation of striking Kentucky miners in November 1931. When the Communist-led National Miners Union competed against the more conservative United Mine Workers of America for greater union membership, class resentment turned to warfare. Harlan Miners Speak, originally published in 1932, is an invaluable record that illustrates the living and working conditions of the miners during the 1930s. This edition of Harlan Miners Speak, with a new introduction by noted historian John C. Hennen, offers readers an in-depth look at a pivotal crisis in the complex history of this controversial form of energy production.
