This comprehensive analysis of key issues in North American
environmental policy provides an overview of how the US, Mexico,
and Canada differ in their environmental management approaches and
capacity levels, and how these differences play into cross-border
cooperation on environmental problems. The book offers insights
into transboundary cooperation both before and after NAFTA, and
presents a framework for making environmental interaction more
effective in the future.
The book is organized into two parts. The first, more general,
section compares the national contexts for environmental management
in each country--including economic conditions, sociocultural
dynamics, and political decision-making frameworks-- and shows how
these have led to variations in policy approaches and levels of
capacity. The authors argue that effective environmental governance
in North America depends on the ability of transboundary
institutions to address and mediate these differences. The book's
second section illustrates this argument, using four case studies
of environmental management in North America: biodiversity and
protected areas, air pollution (smog); greenhouse gas reduction,
and genetically modified crops.
