inkl. gesetzl. MwSt., Versandkostenfrei


Portrait

The use of environmental resources involves strategic behavior to provoke or settle conflicts. This book contains ten papers: six investigate conceptual issues of international environmental conflicts and cooperation while four address conflicts in monitoring and enforcing environmental controls. Advanced game-theoretic concepts are used.
