Global Environmental Politics

New Book by Markus Lederer on the Fundamentals of Global environmental politics

Climate change and environ­mental crises know no boun­daries, making global climate and environ­mental politics more impor­tant than ever.

Markus Lederer’s recently published book “Globale Umwelt­politik” (Global Environ­mental Policy) covers the funda­mentals of this policy area aimed at stu­dents of political science and environmental studies. To this end, he exa­mines historical develop­ments, key actors and insti­tutions. Additionally, the author addresses questions regarding sustaina­bility and growth, justice and effective­ness, as well as centrali­zation and frag­mentation, and provides an overview of current de­bates.

The German-language book is published by utb.
