Environmental politics
Providing an in-depth analysis of the major stakeholders in environmental policy, this innovative book reviews the political battles over the environment from ground level, as they are fought in legislative chambers, the daily newspaper, on television, and, increasingly, on the Internet. The text views politics as a clash of interests, not ideologies, and environmental policy as a process accommodating those interests. Environmental Politics: Interest Groups, the Media, and the Making of Policy gives readers an insider's view of how policies are forged. By examining these issues through an interest group lens this book not only accounts for what policies have been adopted but shows how you can influence policy and effect change.
