Description
The three volumes of Environmental Policy in an International Context have been developed by the Dutch and UK Open Universities as part
of the International Environmental Series. They accompany a workbook and six videos. The first volume takes a critical and analytical
look at contemporary environmental issues built around the key questions - what are international and environmental problems; and why
have they become important politically? These questions are examined from a variety of viewpoints - science, sociology, politics, law
and economics. A multi-disciplinary approach is emphasised and it shows how both technical and scientific solutions need to be sought
alongside
Audience:
Invaluable for undergraduates taking environment-related courses as diverse as environmental geography, environmental management and environmental science.
