• Subject/Category: Human Geography, Urban and Environmental Policy
This book explores the effects of various types of institutions, with a particular focus on how institutional powers, especially those vested in the State, influence urban and environmental policies. Originally published in 1982, it draws on case studies from Britain, America, and Europe, illustrating how differences in institutional powers in these regions shape their urban and environmental challenges.
Each chapter, authored by experts in the field, examines key institutions across various sectors and demonstrates how an ‘institutionalist’ approach can be utilized by geographers. It provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between institutions and geographical issues, making it an essential read for scholars and practitioners in human geography and urban studies.
