Green Politics: Global Environmental Negotiations
1999
A. Agarwal | S. Narain | A. Sharma
Rather than promoting democracy and equality and building a just framework for future governance, environmental negotiations have turned into business transactions, where the rich and powerful often trample on the poor and weak. This book provides a close analysis of important environment-related conventions and institutions from their origins, and demystifies the politics of ‘saving the environment’. It examines the politics between rich and poor nations, and how the stand of one country has influenced the other. Book claims to be "a first-ever comprehensive Southern perspective of the impact of global environmental governance on the real lives of real people, it takes information as the starting point to promote understanding between Northern and Southern governments, and civil society"Highlights from book are available online, but the fulltext is available only in print
