Federalism and Regulation: Some Generalizations
Files
Description
Since the early 1990s, the legal academic literature has paid a great deal of attention to how responsibility over environmental regulation in the United States should be allocated between the federal governments and the states. One purpose of this chapter, to which I turn in Part I, is to defend the approach for the analysis of this issue that I have developed in a series of prior articles. The second goal of the chapter is to suggest how the analysis of federalism and environmental regulation in the United States can cast light on other questions that are of central concern to the contributors to this volume. Part II deals with the allocations of responsibility over environmental regulation in other systems of economic integration, particularly the European Union. Part III discusses the treatment of environmental matters in international trade disputes. Finally, Part IV turns its attention to other areas of government intervention, such as corporate law, banking, and programmes of economic redistribution.
