Reviews

this is an important book which will interest many political scientists apart from those focusing on the environment ... There are excellent summary tables and a model of an index. For environment specialists, there are fresh insights on issues such as risk; the role of scientists and scientific data; and the emergence - with its institutional repercussions - of ecological modernization as the dominent way of conceptualizing environmental problems. The way he draws from German and Dutch primary and secondary sources is especially valuable. Stephen C. Young, University of Manchester, Political Studies This superb book is one of the few successful attempts to apply contemporary sociological thinking to a detailed empirical case-study in the environmental sphere in a way which is genuinely enlightening for policy makers as well as for academic scoial science disciplines ... an excellent book Simon Shackley, Global Environmental Change, vol.7 no.2 1997


Excellent....The discourse of environmental problems ultimately redefines the cultural standards for environmental safety. --Choice<br>
