Nadkarni, M V (Editor) - Pollution Control in the South and North: A Comparative Assessment of Environmental Policy Approaches in India and the Netherlands (Alternatives in Development).

New Delhi : SAGE Publications Pvt. Ltd, 1997. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 254 pp.- Pollution Control in the South and North provides a comparative assessment of the strengths and constraints of pollution control instruments in a developed and a developing country. After providing an overview of such instruments in India and the Netherlands, the authors present three case studies that provide detailed insights into how these instruments work in actual practice. The industries covered are textiles, cement, and fertilizers. The authors conclude from the data that the choice of the optimal instrument is largely influenced by economic, social, and environmental circumstances that difference between countries and from industry to industry. Their comparison of existing policies reveals the similarities and differences between the two countries. In conclusion, the book offers a number of suggestions for improvements in policy instruments aimed at preventing and abating pollution in both countries. In particular, the authors emphasize the possible role of economic instruments that they compare to a choice of instruments already in practice. Pollution Control in the South and North will be of interest to scholars and practitioners in environmental economics, pollution control, and policy studies. Library stamps. English text.
