Using Federalism to Improve Environmental Policy

By David Butler, Henry N. Butler, Jonathan R. Macey

Book Overview

This provocative read tackles the gridlock of federal environmental regulation head-on, as legal scholars Henry N. Butler and Jonathan R. Macey make the case for decentralizing environmental policy through federalism, exposing how command-and-control regulations stifle innovation, investment, and effective enforcement, offering a bold blueprint for reforming environmental law, air pollution standards, and regulatory authority for a more responsive and adaptive system.

This book explores the effects of current regulatory policies and proposes a radical restructuring of the environmental regulatory authority.
