Offering a new way of understanding the high self-harm and suicide
rates among sexual and gender minority youth, this book prioritises
the perspectives and experiences of queer young people, including
those who have experience of self-harming and/or feeling suicidal.
Presenting analysis based on research carried out with young people
both online and face-to-face, the authors offer a critical
perspective on the role of norms, namely developmental norms,
gender and sexuality norms, and neoliberal norms, in the production
of self-harming and suicidal youth. Queer Youth, Suicide and
Self-Harm is unique in the way it works at the intersection of
class and sexuality, and in its specific focus on transgender youth
and the concept of embodied distress. It also examines the
implications of this research for self-harm reduction and suicide
prevention.

Innovation-oriented environmental regulation is extremely
attractive f or policy planners and decision makers, since it is
expected that inno vations can cut costs of environmental measures
and overcome existing trade-offs between economic and ecological
goals. The central question is, however, how such a regulatory
regime of environmental policy app roaches should look like. This
book provides an excellent overview of the state of research by
presenting and discussing theoretical approac hes towards a
framework of environmental regulation and innovation, in
ternational case studies as well as econometric and modelling
studies from Europe and the USA.
