POLSC 350 - Politics and the Environment

Institution:

Neumann University

Subject:

Political Science

Description:

The development of the environmental movement in the 20th century is examined as it has affected the U.S. Congress' role in environmental law and policy formation, the effects of these policies in an international context, and the incorporation of environmental education in public schooling. The role of environmental management in relation to environmental law and policy is also studied. In addition, different models of environmental management are analyzed. The history of environmental regulation and the current distribution of policy-making authority are considered in order to establish a framework for helping to effectively influence the policy process on both a local and global level.
