"This new edition surveys the politics of the environment, providing a comprehensive and comparative introduction to its three components: ideas, activism and policy. It is updated with new and revised discussions of many topics including the ecological state, ecological citizenship, ecological modernisation and the Greens in government and also includes an additional chapter in 'Globalisation trade and the environment'. As well as considering a wide variety of examples from around the world, this textbook features a glossary, guides to further study, chapters summaries and critical questions throughout."--Jacket.
