Time Strategies, Innovation And Environmental Policy, Hardcover by Sartorius, Christian (EDT); Zundel, Stefan (EDT), ISBN 184542090X, ISBN-13 9781845420901, Brand New, Free shipping in the US European researchers working at the nexus of economics, technology, and political science look at environmental problems tossed up by economic development and eco-innovations as solutions to these problems. They examine technological innovations that were or were not adopted and the reasons for whichever applies, and find that there is a variation-selection process in which policy is an important intermediating variable, often with sub-optimal outcomes. Their main conclusion is that incentive-based instruments provide a greater spur to innovate in pollution control that does direct control. The research project that underlies the study was commissioned by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
