Environmental Politics and Policymaking in China

2017 | History & Politics

Dealing with its huge environmental problems is an increasingly important issue for China. The conventional view is that China is not doing well in this area, with a lack of leadership from the top and weak compliance on the ground. This book, by an author who has been personally involved in making and implementing policy in the area, presents a much richer picture. Focusing in particular on policymaking and implementation in air quality management, waste disposal and low carbon initiatives in post-colonial Hong Kong and Macau and the neighbouring province of Guangdong , the book considers the interplay of institutions, technological factors and domestic politics at the local level, evaluates policy successes and failures, and points to ways in which China's environmental management strategies can be improved.
