Suitable for use in undergraduate settings, this textbook by Rosenbaum (emeritus, political science, U. of Florida) explains environmental politics and policy-making in the United States. It discusses the general landscape of American environmental policy and describes the policy process and institutional contexts. It discusses cross-cutting issues of risk assessment, environmental justice, and regulatory economics. It then provides chapters that focus more specifically on air and water pollution regulation, regulation of toxic and hazardous substances, energy policy, public land policy, and climate diplomacy. The new edition has been updated to include analysis of the impact of the George W. Bush administration on domestic environmental policy, recent shifts in public opinion and its impact on policy making, changes in environmental trends and indicators, and other recent developments.
