A both reflective and forward-looking analysis, Francis Sandbach examines the vast literature that has emerged from the environment movement and evaluates the action to which it has led. He traces the social and political factors that determine what attitudes take hold in a given society, how effectively pressure group operate, and what methods of assessing problems are perceived as scientifically objective. The book presents a conceptual framework enabling us to understand the assumptions underlying the arguments of different schools of thought in industrialized countries. The sever limitations on environmental policy and action imposed by the power structure and economic interest groups of those societies are brought sharply into focus. The emphasis throughout is on socio-political factors: the ideology that molds both policy and action.
