Description: Environment in the Balance : The Green Movement and the Supreme Court, Hardcover by Cannon, Jonathan Z., ISBN 0674736788, ISBN-13 9780674736788, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Written by a scholar of environmental law, this book looks at the socio-legal history of the US environmental movement as reflected in Supreme Court decisions. The author interprets . Supreme Court decisions on a wide variety of regulatory and other topics through an environmental lens. These analyses are put in context with both writing from the environmental movement and social science research. The author argues that the movement has brought to light major cultural differences within the US, and that after some early decisions in the 1960s, the Court has consistently reflected a culture of materialism and economic dominance. He concludes that the culture reflected by the Court is not that of most Americans; as global warming causes changes that affect everyday life, and the movement seeks to broaden its cultural framework, it may have more success doing so with the public.
