- W2116731288 abstract "The Politics of Air Pollution: Urban Growth, Ecological Modernization and Symbolic Inclusion , George A. Gonzalez, Albany: State University of New York Press, 2005, pp. viii, 144. Air pollution in the United States, and especially in Los Angeles, has been widely covered in academic studies throughout the second half of the twentieth century, and the new century has already produced several new publications on the topic. Some of this abundance has to be explained by the tenacity of the problem, especially of urban air pollution and the continuing inability of state agencies and business to deal with it. In an era of Kyoto and in the face of an American federal government that is dragging its feet on the larger questions of climate control, air pollution has been recast from a nuisance to a public health problem to a global environmental threat, precisely at a time when so little real action towards its solution seems to be taking place. Yet, the continued interest in air pollution also can be explained by the blossoming of new political theories on the making of policy, which allow for reinterpretations of the data at hand (discourse theory, ecological modernization, and so on). Gonzalez's book is predominantly motivated by that second set of reasons. This long essay—it is a short book which reads more like an extended journal article—makes a distinctive argument which attempts to challenge some of the traditional stories told about air pollution regulation as well as the constructs of political thought that undergird them." @default.
