The central controversy running through this book is whether Mrs Thatcher's famous 'green' speeches of 1988 marked a fundamental shift by the Conservative Government towards environmentalism, or whether they were merely political rhetoric, designed to rule out a temporary surge of popular support for the Green Party. The conclusion arrived at is mixed: in some policy areas a definite shift has occurred, but in others it is 'business as usual'. An overall change of gear is still awaited.

New edition of a text in which Folmer (Wageningen U. and Tilburg U.) and Gabel (INSEAD, France) present 22 contributions that offer both an introduction to the economic causes and consequences of environmental and resource problems and an assessment of recent developments in environmental policy instruments and corporate responses to environmental problems. The first part gives a broad overview of the misallocation problems in a market economy and analyzes the implications of policy and the problems involved in valuation. Subsequent articles provide further insights into topics such as international trade and environmental policy, social accounting, green taxation, waste management, and the relationship between economic growth and environmental quality.
