Environmental cost-benefit analysis was developed by economists in
the belief that monetary valuation of the environmental
repercussions of economic activity is essential if the "environment
" stands any chance of being included in government and business
decisions. This volume examines the limitations of this monetary
approach, and considers the alternatives. Three broad angles from
which to view environmental values are presented: applying social
psychology concepts which challenge standard approaches;
introducing multidimensional and non-monetary techniques; and
examining vested interest group and citizen participation in
processes of environmental valuation. Combinations of these
approaches are also covered. The contributions presented are a
valuable resource for both environmental and ecological economists.
This authoritative book will also prove useful for those with a
general interest in the environment, including policy-makers and
non-governmental organizations.
