The Routledge Handbook of the Political Economy of the Environment

>> Purchase book published by Routledge

This new book, edited by Éloi Laurent and Klara Zwickl and featuring leading environmental scholars, including PERI’s James Boyce, Michael Ash, and Rich Puchalsky, presents the state of the art of the discipline that considers ecological issues and crises from a political economy perspective. This collective volume sheds new light on the effect of economic and power inequality on environmental dynamics and, conversely, on the economic and social impact of environmental dynamics.

James Boyce contributes a chapter on “Carbon Pricing and Climate Justice.”

Boyce, Michael Ash, and Rich Puchalsky author a chapter titled, “Building on the Right-to-Know: Data Interlinkage and Information Intermediation for Environmental and Corporate Regulation.”
