Meiners, Roger E., Morriss, Andrew P.

SUMMARY

While most studies of environmental policy paint a picture of improvement through government initiatives, these essays argue the contrary. Pointing to Cleveland's burning river, the death of Lake Erie, smog in Los Angeles, and Love Canal, the contributors demonstrate that command-and-control regulation of the environment has not delivered the great improvements in environmental quality as promised. The Common Law and the Environment offers principles for a new approach to protecting the environment and looks to evidence of the successes of alternative legal systems to address significant problems.Meiners, Roger E. is the author of 'Common Law and the Environment Rethinking the Statutory Basis for Modern Environmental Law' with ISBN 9780847697083 and ISBN 0847697088.
