Inhaltsangabe:

“For over seven years Notar patiently interviewed Chinese environmental and transportation officials...providing valuable insights into the obstacles facing Chinese local officials and auto companies as they try to create greener and cleaner cars.”-Jennifer Turner, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars "Notar's innovative study will be important for policy makers...It will be just as important for those interested in the Chinese political process for showing how much variation is possible between the policies of major cities as they negotiate between the constraints of central policy and local possibility."-Robert P. Weller, Boston University “Notar not only provides a close look at how Chinese officials established standards to control China's auto emissions, she has conducted one of the first surveys to be published in the West about the significance of a growing car culture among China's emerging elite.”-Merle Goldman, Boston University “A must-read for anyone interested in understanding automobile emissions regulation in China and environmental policymaking,in general.”-Karen Fisher- Vanden,Pennsylvania State University
