Climate Liberalism: Perspectives on Liberty, Property and Pollution
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031211073 | 495 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 4 MB
Climate Liberalism examines the potential and limitations of classical-liberal approaches to pollution control and climate change. Some successful environmental strategies, such as the use of catch-shares for fisheries, instream water rights, and tradable emission permits, draw heavily upon the classical liberal intellectual tradition and its emphasis on property rights and competitive markets. This intellectual tradition has been less helpful, to date, in the development or design of climate change policies.
