The fallout from this increase is evidenced by the struggle of cities like Beijing to improve their air quality. Yet there also exist developing countries such as Thailand that have managed to limit their emissions to more tolerable levels, raising the question: why are some developing countries more willing or able to take care of their environment than others?In thisRoutledge Research in Environmental Policy and PoliticsEnvironmental policyInternational cooperationDemocracyDeveloping countriesDeveloping countriesEnvironmental conditionsElectronic books.Environmental policyInternational cooperation.Democracy337.09172/4Spilker Gabriele1979-,920246MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462833803321Globalization, political institutions and the environment in developing countries2064135UNINA
