解説

The concept of natural resources as 'commons' has been with us since 1968, when Garrett Hardin used that metaphor to draw attention to the human tendency towards overconsumption. In Environmental Politics in Canada McKenzie examines Canada's efforts to avert the tragedy that Hardin foresaw. At the same time she offers a broader perspective on the ways in which 'environmental issues' are viewed and managed. In addition to addressing specific issues--diminishing natural resources, genetically modified foods, water contamination, global warming, endangered species protection--McKenzie presents detailed overviews of green political thought and the evolution of environmentalism, as well as the complex political and economic contexts, both domestic and international, within which Canadian environmental policy is made.
