This book examines what is not so well known: the extent to which business succeeds in its policy interventions. In Business and Environmental Policy , a team of distinguished scholars systematically analyzes corporate influence at all stages of the policy process, focusing on the factors that determine the success or failure of business lobbying in Congress, state legislatures, local governments, federal and state agencies, and the courts. These experts consider whether business influence is effectively counterbalanced by the efforts of environmental groups, public opinion, and other forces. The book also examines the use of the media to influence public opinion--as in the battle over drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge--and corporations' efforts to sway elections by making campaign contributions. Because the book goes well beyond the existing literature--much of which is narrow, descriptive, and anecdotal--to provide broad-based empirical evidence of corporate influence on environmental policy, it makes an original and important contribution and is appropriate for a variety of undergraduate and graduate courses. 410 0$aAmerican and comparative environmental policy. 606 $aCorporations$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aBusiness and politics$zUnited States 606 $aLegislation$zUnited States 606 $aCorporate power$zUnited States 606 $aEnvironmental policy$zUnited States 606 $aIndustrial management$xEnvironmental aspects$zUnited States 615 0$aCorporations$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aBusiness and politics 615 0$aLegislation 615 0$aCorporate power 615 0$aEnvironmental policy 615 0$aIndustrial management$xEnvironmental aspects 676 $a333.70973 701 $aKraft$b Michael E$01028903 701 $aKamieniecki$b Sheldon$0978975 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962187703321 996 $aBusiness and environmental policy$94341280 997 $aUNINA
