International Environmental Policy by Lynton Keith Caldwell

International Environmental Policy by Lynton Keith Caldwell

In this newly revised and expanded edition of the award-winning International Environmental Policy, Lynton Keith Caldwell updates his comprehensive survey of the global international movement for protection of the environment. Serving as a history of international cooperation on environmental issues, this book focuses primarily on the development of international agreements and institutional arrangements—both governmental and nongovernmental—along with the impact of science, technology, trade, and communication on environmental policy. With implications for multinational commerce, population policy, agriculture, energy issues, biological and cultural diversity, transnational equity, ideology, and education, this book takes a broad view of the policy outcomes of what may be the most important social movement of the 20th century, and addresses the events and politics that have significantly affected the movement over the last twenty years and will continue to affect it into the next century.

“International Environmental Policy provides the definitive historical tontext for understanding international environmental policy in the 20th century”—Edith Brown Weiss, Georgetown University Law Center

Lynton Keith Caldwell is Arthur F. Bentley Professor of Political Science Emeritus and Professor of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University. The first edition of International Environmental Policy received the 1985 Harold and Margaret Sprout Award from the International Studies Association.
