This book takes a fresh look at this question through three case studies of highly regulated polluting industries in the Southern California region: metal finishing, wood furniture, and dry cleaning. The case studies are based on a mix of qualitative and quantitative methods, including in-depth interviews with corporate managers and environmental regulators. The authors find that there is no universal pattern for predicting the effects of environmental regulations on industrial competitiveness, but that the outcomes depend on the structure of the industry being regulated, the design of the regulations, and the technologies that are available for compliance. The book is written in straight forwardlanguage that is accessible to the non-economist and will prove an essential resource for academics and students of all levels, and professionals and policy makers in the fields of environmental policy and | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | Air Pollution; Clean Technologies; Economic Development; Environmental Policy; Environmental Economics | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-26376-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-26378-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-26376-7Series ISSN 1383-5130 Series E-ISSN 2215-0110 | issn_series | 1383-5130 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
