Synopsis
Drawing on a range of case studies, Mason (geography and environment, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK) provides a fresh definition of democratic accountability for transboundary and global harm. He argues that environmental responsibility should be established in open public discussions about harm and risk, and makes the case that, regardless of nationality, affected parties should be empowered to seek redress from those responsible for environmental degradation. The book is distributed in the US by Stylus. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
