Global warming is widely considered to be one of the most serious
environmental problems for current and future generations.
Moreover, the apparent failure of the Kyoto Protocol to effect a
meaningful reduction in greenhouse gas emissions has increased the
importance of economic research into new ways to control global
warming. In this exhaustive study, the authors break new ground by
integrating cutting edge insights on global warming from three
different perspectives: game theory, cost-effectiveness analysis
and public choice. For each perspective the authors provide an
overview of important results, discuss the theoretical consistency
of the models and assumptions, highlight the practical problems
which are not yet captured by theory and explore the different
applications to the various problems encountered in global warming.
They demonstrate how each perspective has its own merits and
weaknesses, and advocate an integrated approach as the best way
forward. They also propose a research agenda for the future which
encompasses the three methods to create a powerful tool for the
analysis and resolution of global pollution problems. Surveying a
large amount of literature and providing plentiful examples of
potential applications, this extensive book combines three branches
of economic research on global warming into one accessible volume.
It will be widely read by students and scholars in environmental
courses, environmental and resource economists, and those working
in governmental and non-governmental organisations concerned with
international environmental problems.
The euphoria evidenced in the aftermath of the collapse of
communist regimes in the late 1980s and early 1990s sometimes
conveyed the impression that the process of democratization would
be achieved without difficulty or tribulation. This book sets out
to provide a thorough comparative analysis of the challenges which
face the emerging democracies of Central and Eastern Europe and
considers the impact of political change. Drawing heavily on
available survey data, the book provides an in-depth account of how
the new democracies of Central and Eastern Europe have coped with
four major challenges: political fragmentation, nationalism, lack
of respect for human rights, and poorly developed civil service
systems. The book demonstrates that although the first few years of
the 1990s were marked by increasing disenchantment with the new
regimes, the change of governments as a direct result of the
electoral process and the prospects for European integration have
served to reverse this negative trend. Indeed, the authors find
that the new political systems have managed to cope with the
challenges so effectively that striking similarities with Western
democracies are now apparent. Offering new insights into democratic
transition, Challenges to Democracy will appeal to political
scientists, diplomats and policymakers, and economists with an
interest in European and comparative politics.
Rahel and Fenna grew up in an all-female household with their
mother and her female partner. Now Rahel strives to reproduce the
traditional family unit but she is haunted by an unsettling
pregnancy, postnatal depression, while having mixed feelings about
her singing career. Meanwhile, Fenna wonders whether she consented
to the intercourse with Luc which left her pregnant. What Concerns
Us is a punchy contemporary read that scrutinises gender roles
within our society, examining what it means to be a mother and the
nature of femininity, as well as how to remain independent in a
variety of different types of relationship.
Scholarly interpretations of the collapse of communism and
developments thereafter have tended to be primarily concerned with
people's need to rid themselves of the communist system, of their
past. The expectations, dreams, and hopes that ordinary Eastern
Europeans had when they took to the streets in 1989, and have had
ever since, have therefore been overlooked - and our understanding
of the changes in post-communist Europe has remained incomplete.
Focusing primarily on five key areas, such as the heritage of 1989
revolutions, ambivalence, disillusionment, individualism, and
collective identities, this book explores the expectations and
goals that ordinary Eastern Europeans had during the 1989
revolutions and the decade thereafter, and also the problems and
disappointments they encountered in the course of the
transformation. The analysis is based on extensive interviews with
university students and young intellectuals in the Czech Republic,
Eastern Germany and Estonia in the 1990s, which in themselves have
considerable value as historical documents.

This book presents a comprehensive history of law and religion in
the Nordic context. The entwinement of law and religion in
Scandinavia encompasses an unusual history, not widely known yet
important for its impact on contemporary political and
international relations in the region. The volume provides a
holistic picture from the first written legal sources of the
twelfth century to the law of the present secular welfare states.
It recounts this history through biographical case studies. Taking
the point of view of major influential figures in church, politics,
university, and law, it thus presents the principal actors who
served as catalysts in ecclesiastical and secular law through the
centuries. This refreshing approach to legal history contributes to
a new trend in historiography, particularly articulated by a
younger generation of experienced Nordic scholars whose work is
featured prominently in this volume. The collection will be a
valuable resource for academics and researchers working in the
areas of Legal History and Law and Religion.

This book, first in a series of three, examines the social elites
in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and Iceland, and which social,
political, and cultural resources went into their creation. The
elite controlled enormous economic resources and exercised power
over people. Power over agrarian production was essential to the
elites during this period, although mobile capital was becoming
increasingly important. The book focuses on the material resources
of the elites, through questions such as: Which types of resources
were at play? How did the elites acquire and exchange resources?
