How Context Matters: Linking Environmental Policy to People and Place - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book presents an unique method of looking at environmental policy formulation and implementation. Honadle outlines alternative approaches for implementing policies designed to protect natural resources and promote sustainable development practices. He expertly moves policy making from a universalistic one-size-fits-all position, to an approach that is tied to the context of the people or place for which the policy is designed, and therefore more likely to be effective. Drawing upon a range of disciplines, the book identifies specific elements of the natural resource condition and in the social and political setting that present opportunities, create implementation hurdles, and affect policy performance. Honadle offers new explanations for the success of some policies and the failure of others. A mix of examples from the North and South illustrate how context-specific policy can succeed.
