Introducing an exciting new approach to the teaching of environmental law:ENVIRONMENTAL, LAW AND POLICY, by Peter Menell & Richard Stewart. The authors' focus on policy & theory, rather than the minutia of environmental law, gives students the analytical tools they need to examine any given law or statute. This comprehensive policy-oriented casebook covers all the essential topics you'll want to address in class. It begins with a theoretical overview, introducing key environmental problems. The second chapter presents different problem-solving approaches: economic analysis, cost-benefit analysis, & the pursuit of social goals other than efficient resource allocation. Other chapters address: the role of common law, the regulation of hazardous waste, the administrative law doctrines that govern environmental law, NEPA, natural resources, & the future of environmental law & policy. The authors' approach is analytical & balanced, offering the full range of theoretical perspectives that affect current & future laws & statutes: public policy analysis the integration of law, science, & policy the philosophical foundations of environmental law the political dimensions of environmental law & policy Professors Menell & Stewart also pay careful attention to pedagogy. Each chapter is divided into units that can be taught in one class session & includes lively problems to spark classroom discussion. ENVIRONMENTAL LAW AND POLICY is a manageable length for teaching. Its in-depth Teacher's Manual provides helpful author insight (especially helpful for professors who are new to the area), & an accompanying Statutory Supplement collects important statutes in one convenient place.
