Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

..".a comprehensive treatment to an important subject and provides an analysis that is both insightful and useful. This book is unquestionably a positive addition to the literature on environmental policy." -- Reviewed by Stanley M. Caress, State University of West Georgia

"The authors have taken two important topics that are very much in the scholarly and environmental literature--wetlands protection and regulatory federalism--and combined them in a fresh approach. I enjoyed reading their descriptions of the cases, and I gained a new appreciation for the state-level view of wetlands protection and the politics of implementing the Section 404 permitting program." -- Denise Scheberle, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay

"This book serves to emphasize the inherent complexity of environmental policy implementation and the potential difficulties of attempting to devolve regulatory functions from federal to state authorities. Indeed, the reluctance of many states to take the 'assumption' option offered by the federal government in this program area is one of the most interesting components of the analysis." -- Barry Rabe, University of Michigan

Reseña del editor:

Wetlands are a valuable natural resource, yet over 200,000 acres are destroyed in the United States per year. This book examines whether states should assume the role of protecting wetlands rather than the federal government.
