Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"This book makes its point-a significant one about the relevance of participatory democracy to the issue of environmental sustainability-straightforwardly and without mincing words. It accomplishes the difficult task of both crystallizing and advancing the debate across the fields of democratic theory and environmental politics."-Albert R. Matheny, University of Florida "The book makes an important and interesting contribution to our understanding of the dynamics of environmental disputes and their connections to broader issues of democratic theory and federalism."-Bruce A. Williams, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign Read more...
