Leading international scholars and practitioners examine China’s environmental governance efforts from an interdisciplinary perspective. A must read for anyone who wants to be brought up-to-date on the dramatic environmental, climate, and sustainability policies and programmes in China, and the initiatives of Chinese leadership to create an ecological civilization.
