Titre : Lapsed leadership : US International Environmental Policy since Rio Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Robert L. Paarlberg, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Importance : p 236-255 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : SCIENCES SOCIALES Mots-clés : POLITIQUE ENVIRONNEMENTALE CHANGEMENT CLIMATIQUE Résumé : In this chapter, we first review the history of the lapses of US leadership concerning climate change and biodiversity and then seek to explain them. We conclude that despite some superficial similarity, these cases are different. Lagging US leadership on climate change policy is the result of several powerful political factors, including strong domestic opposition from both industry and organized labor, a still-weak scientific consensus on the gains that might come from action, plus an unsolved international cooperation problem. Compared to stratospheric ozone protection, these barriers to action are stronger across the board in climate change policy. In the area of biodiversity protection, however, these barriers to action have been stronger across the board in climate change policy. In the area of biodiversity protection, however, these barriers to action have been weak and faltering US leadership must be explained in other ways.
The analysis that follows underscores the difficulty of taking policy action on international environmental problems in the United States. It is rare to see the executive branch and Congress engaged at the same time in the pursuit of the same international environmental policy objective. In the exceptional case of CFCs, all of the most important political forces and factors needed for effective US leadership action fell into place. For climate change and biodiversity, albeit for different reasons, a more typical pattern of interbranch division has blocked effective action.

Titre : The dutch national plan for sustainable society Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Duncan Liefferink, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Importance : p 256-278 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : SCIENCES SOCIALES Mots-clés : PAYS BAS DEVELOPPEMENT DURABLE NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY PLAN (NEPP) POLITIQUE ENVIRONNEMENTALE Résumé : In the beginning of this chapter, the question was raised why and how a policy plan could acquire such a central place in the evolution as well as the international reputation of dutch environmental policy. The 1989 National Environmental Policy Plan (NEPP), rather than concrete policy performance, is the basis of Netherland’s reputation as an environmentally progressive country. In order to understand the full significance of the NEPP, it’s necessary to investigate how the NEPP is rooted in the Dutch political system and how it relates to earlier environmental plans and policies.
This is the focus of the next section, where it is shown that the NEPP approach is as much a culmination of earlier trends and initiatives as a revolutionary new start. The third section examines the follow-up and implementation of the NEPP.
The NEPP anticipates and works out many elements of Agenda 21 as it was adopted and this may explain why the plan could act as a source of inspiration for the elaboration of similar ideas in other countries as well as at the level of the European Union. The discussion of the international impact of the NEPP in the penultimate section of this chapter enables us to put its allegedly unique and exemplary character in perspective. To what extent then is the reputation of the NEPP justified. In the final section we will come back to this question.
