Policy Instruments in Environmental Law (Hardcover): Kenneth R. Richards, Josephine van Zeben Policy Instruments in Environmental Law (Hardcover)
Kenneth R. Richards, Josephine van Zeben
R6,790 Discovery Miles 67 900 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Governments have at their disposal a broad range of policy instruments that they may use to influence behaviour and pursue environmental policy goals. This volume of the Elgar Encyclopedia of Environmental Law is a comprehensive guide to these environmental policy instruments, examining their characteristics, applications, strengths and limitations, as well as giving an overview of the most significant issues related to their adoption and effectiveness. With entries written by leading international scholars, this incisive volume provides insight into the cross-cutting issues that are common to discussions of such policy instruments, including the legal bases for their use, how instruments can be compared for costs, distributional questions, and monitoring and enforcement. Contributions also explore hybrids and blends of policy instruments and explain the relationships between them, using case studies and examples from around the world, as well as providing succinct summaries of the substantial literature in the field. Students and scholars in environmental law will find this volume to be an invaluable resource, for both its solid theoretical foundations and its analysis of undertreated issues in the field. Its discussion of how and why each policy tool might be used is particularly relevant for policymakers and practitioners. Contributors include: A.D.K. Abelkop, C. Coglianese, M.A. Cohen, D.H. Cole, C.M. Correa, N. de Sadeleer, R.C. Feiock, P.Z. Grossman, N. Gunningham, S. Hayes Richards, M. Howlett, S.-L. Hsu, B. Huber, O. Karassin, B.C. Karkkainen, S.E. Light, L.M.J. McCann, J.E. Milne, I. Mukherjee, E.W. Orts, O. Perez, K.R. Richards, T.M. Roberts, A. Rowell, S. Roy, J.P. Shimshack, H. Sigman, D. Sinclair, S. Starobin, S.E. Weishaar, E. Woerdman, H. Yi, J. van Zeben

Essays on the Eighteenth-Century English Stage (Paperback): Peter Thomson, Kenneth R. Richards Essays on the Eighteenth-Century English Stage (Paperback)
Peter Thomson, Kenneth R. Richards
R988 Discovery Miles 9 880 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The eighteenth century produced more inventive actors than fine dramatists, and it displayed its actors to increasing advantage as theatre management became more expert, and stage design more ambitious. First published in 1972, the eleven papers collected in The Eighteenth-Century English Stage, originally read at a Manchester University Symposium in July 1971, follow this historical emphasis. Two papers are centred on dramatists, four on actors, three on managers, and two on designers. Malcolm Kelsall analyses Steele's debt to Terence, using his classical scholarship as illuminatingly as Edgar Roberts uses his musical scholarship in writing about the songs in Fielding's plays. George Taylor compares and evaluates a number of theories of acting, and speculates on the likely relevance of the best-known books on rhetoric, whilst Kathleen Barker, Arnold Hare, and David Rostron consider the work of individual actors - Powell, Cooke, and John Kemble. Theatre managers are represented by John Rich in Paul Sawyer's sympathetic account, Thomas Harris, who is given new life in the recent researches of Cecil Price, and Stephen Kemble, fixed by Kenneth Robinson in canny control of the Newcastle theatre circuit. Finally, Graham Barlow reaches some controversial conclusions about the dimensions of the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, by subjecting Thornhill's sketches to a practising designer's statistical examination, and Sybil Rosenfeld carries a stage further her pioneering work on eighteenth-century scene-painting and design. The two last are attractively illustrated by 8 pages of plates. This book's particular value lies in its bringing together several simply presented but deeply informed explorations of often neglected aspects of the eighteenth-century theatre. The papers, with their general sense of enthusiasm and concern for their subject, will interest all students of the eighteenth century, and theatre enthusiasts in particular.
