摘要:

AbstractEnforcement of European Union (EU) environmental legislation is pursued by the Commission and to some extent by citizens and environmental groups within an underdeveloped legal and institutional framework. However, Europeans actively support the protection of the environment, as recent protest events have demonstrated. The EU should redress its environmental deficit and provide its citizens with an effective environmental order in a participatory democratic system. This is a challenge the EU should meet in the interests of people, the environment and further European integration.

摘要:

AbstractThe EU Eco‐Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) reflects the increasing emphasis that is being given to voluntary environmental regulation. Although this approach is generally welcomed as a complement to command and control regulation, concerns remain about the level of voluntary participation. The findings are presented of a pilot study in Italy which sought to examine the prospects for EMAS in small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises in the chemical ind

摘要:

AbstractEnvironmentally based economic development and employment opportunities in Northern Ireland are identified and predicted over the medium term to the year 2000. The results show that in 1993 about 1.9% of the total Northern Ireland workforce (11 500 workers) was employed within a ‘green production sector’. Using an innovative economic modelling technique it is suggested that there are significant employment generation opportunities available and a total of up to 15 000 new jobs could be created in Northern Ireland's green economy by the turn of the century. Moreover, and on the basis of these findings, four recommendations are offered which could help maximize the employment potentials afforded by environmental activ

摘要:

AbstractThe possible expansion of the European Union (EU) is still high on the political agenda, with many of the former communist countries of Central and Eastern Europe seeking to gain membership. One such country is the Czech Republic. Full membership for the Czech Republic would require an alignment of domestic policies with those of the EU. This paper focuses on the policy area of the environment, paying particular attention to air protection. The way in which the Czech Republic is preparing to meet existing EU air protection requirements is explored in the light of possible membership. As all five EU Environmental Action Programmes have advocated the use of incentive‐based legislation in the future, the readiness, willingness and capability of the Czech Republic to accept legislation based on the use of economic instruments is investigate
