Download or read book Negotiating Environmental Quality written by Markus A. Lehmann and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using strategic game theory, this innovative book carefully reviews the detailed negotiations between industry, regulating agencies, and third parties in environmental policy implementation. The analysis is underpinned by an institutional comparison of German and American administrative and environmental law. After presenting an alternative model to address real-world bargaining, Markus Lehmann provides an economic rationale for the use of case-to-case regulation, a policy instrument traditionally neglected if not rejected by environmental economists. He discusses how and to what extent the shortcomings of this instrument can be overcome by a specific institutional design. He presents a clear-cut policy conclusion which is shown to be quite robust under different model structures and varying sets of assumptions.

Download or read book Environmental Dispute Resolution written by Lawrence S. Bacow and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has its origins in an M.I.T. research project that was funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Our immediate objective was to prepare a set of case studies that examined bargaining and negotiation as they occurred between government, environmental advocates, and regulatees throughout the traditional regulatory process. The project was part of a larger effort by the EPA to make environmental regulation more efficient and less litigious. The principal investigator for the research effort was Lawrence Sus skind of the Department of Urban Studies and Planning. Eight case studies were prepared under the joint supervision of Susskind and the authors of this book. Studying the negotiating behavior of parties as we worked our way through an environmental dispute proved enlightening. We observed missed oppor tunities for settlement, negotiating tactics that backfired, and strategies that ap peared to be grounded more in intuition than in thoughtful analysis. At the same time, however, we were struck by how often the parties ultimately managed to muddle through. People negotiated not out of some idealistic commitment to consensus but because they thought it better served their own interests. When some negotiations reached an impasse, people improvised mediation. These disputants succeeded in spite of legal and institutional barriers, even though few of them had a sophisticated understanding of negotiation.

Download or read book Earth Negotiations written by Pamela S. Chasek and published by United Nations University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earth Negotiations develops a phased-process model that can enable greater understanding of the process by which international environmental agreements are negotiated. By breaking down the negotiating process into a series of phases and turning points, it is easier to analyze the roles of the different actors, the management of issues, the formation of groups and coalitions, and the art of consensus building. Six discernible phases and five associated turning points within the process of multilateral environmental negotiation are identified and explained. The model is then used to see if there is anything that occurs in the earlier phases of negotiation that affects subsequent phases and if there is anything in the process that may have an effect on the outcome. The overall goal is to determine what lessons can be learned from past cases of multilateral environmental negotiation in order to help both practitioners and scholars strengthen the negotiating process and the quality of its results.

This book was released on 2014-06-30 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Negotiation Series, 12 (International Studies Library, 38) Since the modern environmental movement began more than 40 years ago, negotiation has become an important way to resolve contentious environmental issues. Previous research often treats environmental negotiation as a static phenomenon and has not addressed how changes in the process impact resolution. Utilizing a dynamic model of negotiation and analysis of detailed case chronologies, this book explores how substantive and procedural moves by various actors - including parties, mediators, and enforcers -- prompt key turning points in environmental negotiations, and the consequences for negotiators' progress toward agreement. The study compares the typical patterns of process change in a set of domestic and international environmental cases, and offers potential implications for future research and empirically based recommendations for practice.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking forestry and agriculture as crucial examples, economists and political scientists from non-industrialized countries assess the debate between trade and the environment, analyzing international negotiations and how they affect the concerns of their countries. They review the contribution to environmental management by regional trading agreements in North and South America and southeast Asia. Brazilian-based international economist Tussie summarizes and concludes that the existing structures do not loop the countries into environmental management, and that a new organizational configuration is needed.

Download or read book Substantive Relational and Proceudral Case Outcomes in Assisted Environmental Negotiations written by William Hall and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reports on a study concerning the connection between the outcomes of neutral third party assisted environmental negotiations -- such as the nature of agreements reached, changes in relationships, and party satisfaction with the process - and negotiation process inputs and policy context. Negotiation process inputs include how negotiators address substantive issues, attributes of negotiator participation, and the role of neutral third parties. Policy context refers to factors such as the decision-making forum from which a negotiation emerged, and whether a negotiation concerns a pending or actual decision. These relationships are explored through an empirical study of 53 neutral third party assisted environmental negotiation cases at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Findings include significant relationships between certain substantive and participant process inputs (both directly and as enabling variables), the decision forum and decision status, and substantive and relational outcomes. The neutral third party factors considered show only a limited relationship to outcomes in these cases. There is also a significant amount of unexplained variation for some case outcomes. These findings have potential implications for negotiation theory, environmental negotiation practice, and future research.
