Like Norman Miller's companion text, Environmental Politics, this
casebook emphasizes the struggle for power among stakeholders in
environmental politics and policymaking. Whether examining recent
legislation on energy policy, air pollution, endangered species,
land use, or the politics of food, each case is presented through a
narrative introduction and a dozen or more primary source documents
that illustrate whose interests are at stake and how they pursue
them in the policymaking process. Engaging introductions by Miller
provide a narrative frame and context for the primary source
documents in each chapter. Discussion questions prompt students to
analyze the struggles and compromises inherent in environmental
policymaking.
The primary source documents include excerpts from public
hearing testimony, regulatory agency statements, journal articles,
scientific reports, online briefs, and commentary in media outlets
from businesses and environmental groups. While the individual
cases highlight only the most significant stakeholder positions on
each issue, collectively the cases cover the entire spectrum of
groups discussed in the main text, Environmental Politics.
