Environmental Regulation in Transforming Economies: The Case of Poland cover

First published in 1999 , the book is based on papers given at the final workshop of a research project into the evolution of environmental regulation in Poland undertaken as part of the UKs ERSC Global Environmental Change Programme. Other invited papers focused on the development of regulatory policy in transforming economies and in the UK. Furthermore the book highlights the weakness of internal political processes in Poland and the important role played by foreign sponsored pressures whilst exsamaning the divergence between the way environmental charges are supposed to operate and the ways in which they are implemented and enforced. Topics covered include the links between privatisation and the environment, the saline water problem in Upper Silesia, enforcement of and compliance with environmental charges, air pollution in Krakow and the structure of the Polish environmental administration system.

’...a successful and useful venture which fills an apparent gap in Polish legal and economic environmental literature...provides a comprehensive summary of the type of knowledge which is today required and greatly appreciated by academics, practicing lawyers, economists and ecologists.’ Environmental Law Review
