| book description |

Voluntary agreements and other approaches based on co-operation between public authorities and (agro)industrial polluters are rapidly gaining importance throughout Europe. This so-called Joint Environmental Policy-making (JEP) is increasingly being presented as a ""third way"", alongside direct regulation through laws and the use of financial ""sticks and carrots"" in the form of eco-taxes and subsidies Successes and failures are reported from JEP experiences in various European countries. This book seeks to evaluate these experiences. Is JEP really the panacea it is sometimes claimed to be? To what extent does JEP actually fit into different national policy systems and cultures? Is the application of JEP dependant of specific circumstances? In answering these and other questions, the book focuses on the forces and institutional conditions that are likely to promote the introduction, determine the form and contribute to the successful functioning of JEP arrangements.
