Beskrivning

First Published in 2011. Mr. Haefele is a thoroughly modern eighteenth-century man in that he brings to bear new techniques of political analysis with an undisguised preference for making the government of the American Republic as contemplated by the founding fathers really work for the benefit of the people. Focusing on the question of environmental management, Haefele carefully examines how we make social choices today and how the Constitution says we should and presents compelling arguments for bringing the two processes back into congruence. The papers in this volume have been brought together from several earlier ones published in professional journals, and some rewritten.

Recensioner i media

' it cannot be too highly recommended... Combines ecological knowledge with political philosophy.' Robert Waller, The Ecologist'Looked at from the standpoint of specialists in public choices, the mathematical model which permits investigation of various logrolling activities is the most interesting part of the book... Both those who have been working on environmental management and know little or nothing about the modern approach to politics and those who have been working on politics will find much in this book to think over carefully...' American Political Science Review
