The New Public Finance
The world's agenda of international cooperation has changed. The conventional concerns of foreign affairs, international trade, and development assistance, are increasingly sharing the political center stage with a new set of issues. These include trans-border concerns such as global financial stability and market efficiency, risk of global climate change, bio-diversity conservation, control of resurgent and new communicable diseases, food safety, cyber crime and e-commerce, control of drug trafficking, and international terrorism and weapons of mass destruction. Globalization and increasing porosity of national borders have been key driving forces that have led to growing interdependence an...

Emissions Trading
Der Emissionsrechtehandel ist eine rechtliche Vereinbarung, die es Emissionsquellen (chemischen - und Fertigungsbetrieben) erlaubt, Emissionsrechte bestimmter Schad- und Giftstoffe zu kaufen oder zu verkaufen. Der Ausstoß dieser Stoffe, insbesondere von Stickoxiden, flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen, Schwefeldioxiden und Kohlenmonoxiden, wird von der EPA, der amerikanischen Umweltschutzbehörde, geregelt. Dieses Buch definiert und erläutert unternehmensbezogene Fragen im Bereich des Emissionsrechtehandels und bietet Anleitungen für die effektive Nutzung dieses kontrovers diskutierten Themas. "Emissions Trading" wurde von Spitzenforschern auf diesem Gebiet geschrieben. Sie haben u.a. eine gemeinsame Sprache und Terminologie für die Diskussion des Emissionsrechtehandels erarbeitet haben und bieten Tipps an für die Umsetzung in die Praxis. Ein Buch aus der NAM (National Association of Manufacturers)-Reihe; mit einem Vorwort von NAM-President Jerry Jasinowski.
Carbon Coalitions
Meckling explains how a transnational coalition of firms and a few market-oriented environmental groups actively promoted international emissions trading as a compromise policy solution in a situation of political stalemate. The coalition sidelined not only environmental groups that favored taxation and command-and-control regulation but also business interests that rejected any emissions controls. Considering the sources of business influence, Meckling emphasizes the importance of political opportunities (policy crises and norms), coalition resources (funding and legitimacy,) and political strategy (mobilizing state allies and multilevel advocacy).

Conservation of Tropical Rainforests
This book critically engages with how the conservation of tropical rainforests is financed. Beginning with the context of tropical deforestation, alongside an overview of tropical ecology, global environmental policy and finance, the book reviews several conservation financing instruments. These include ecotourism and private reserves, debt-for-nature swaps and government domestic budgetary expenditures for state and national parks. Tropical deforestation and forest degradation are serious global environmental issues, contributing to global climate change, species extinction, and threatening the livelihoods of forest-dependent communities. Yet, many leading companies, individuals and governments are making a positive impact on tropical forest conservation to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions through the use of conservation finance. Conservation of Tropical Rainforests tells the history of international conservation finance and provides a variety of options for individuals, businesses, and governments to support conservation financing projects.
