The second edition of this Handbook contains more than 30 new and
original articles as well as six essential updates by leading
scholars of global environmental politics. This landmark book maps
the latest theoretical and empirical research in this energetic and
growing field. Captured here are the pioneering and lively debates
over concerns for the health of the planet and how they might best
be addressed. The introduction explores the intellectual trends and
evolving parameters in the field of global environmental politics.
It makes a case for an expansive definition of the field, one that
embraces an interdisciplinary literature on the connections between
global politics and environmental change. The remaining chapters
are divided into four broad themes - states and cooperation; global
governance; the political economy of governance; and knowledge and
ethics - with each section covering key emerging issues. In-depth
explorations are given to topics such as climate change,
multinational corporations, international agreements and UN
organizations, regulations and business standards, trade and
international finance, multilevel and transnational governance, and
ecological citizenship. Handbook of Global Environmental Politics,
Second Edition is a comprehensive review of the field and offers
cutting-edge ideas for further research. As such, scholars,
students and policy makers will find themselves looking to it for
many years to come. Contributors: S. Andresen, K. Backstrand, J.S.
