Regulation Theory and Sustainable Development
Author: Corinne Gendron
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136654011
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This book argues that current economist theories do not take into account the socially constructed nature of the debate surrounding the environment and environmental policy. It examines whether proposed economic solutions to environmental policy are, in fact, viable in practice. The book demonstrates that social conflicts cause policy compromises, which shape the economic system of a post-industrial ecological society. The author offers an innovative socio-economic theory of environmental politics, which illuminates the transformation dynamics brought about by the ecological crisis. Regulation Theory and Sustainable Development will be of interest to students and scholars of environmental politics, policy and governance.

Sustainable City in Africa Facing the Challenge of Liquid Sanitation
Author: Esoh Elamé
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1786308088
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
This book questions the role of liquid sanitation in the development of cities in Africa. The absence of sewerage networks and treatment plants in African cities already submerged by rapid and anarchic urbanization is a major problem. To meet this challenge, it is urgent to rethink urban water governance and impose and enforce sustainable urban planning standards. In other words, sanitation issues must now be placed at the heart of urban planning.
