A Political Economy in an Ecological Web

Author

  • Jason Shogren
Abstract
Behavior matters more to environmental policy than most people think. This paper illustrates why this point needs repeating in four ongoing policy debates in the United States – Children's health risk, ozone/particulate matter (PM), climate change, and endangered species.
