Robert Sullivan discusses his three latest books.
David Jenkins focuses on two case studies: oil-field waste disposal in a southern Louisiana community of only 318, and the development of alternative communities in rapidly growing Tucson, Arizona, whose population now stands at more than 830,000.

With examples of water development projects in Nepal, Gyawali discusses the potential of human rights discourse to challenge bad state decisions and the negative forces of globalization in the area of development.
"In this project, the Japan team has tried to shed light on values in Japanese society as they relate to nature, life, pollution, and economic development. We've done this by conducting field interviews with people interested in or affected by pollution in Minamata, Niigata, Nagara River, and Lake Biwa."

By most accounts within and beyond Italy today, the Rockefeller Foundation freed
Sardinia of malaria, catalyzing the island's subsequent economic miracle. Yet malaria is an environmental issue as well as a health concern.
International environmental justice presents difficulties for courts and advocates seeking to characterize problems at this intersection of environmental, human rights, and anti-discrimination law. Osofsky draws from U.S. environmental justice advocacy to propose a model for approaching the application of international human rights law to instances of environmental injustice.

Many think that Indian environmentalism arose in opposition to an anti-environmental government (as well as, at an earlier point, British colonial rule), leading to "a backward-thinking anti-ecological state and a pro-environmental civil society." In fact, what is really taking place is "a battle between two [strands] of environmental discourse," argues Shiv Visvanathan.

At this Environmental Values Project seminar, Thompson argues that the key to environmental policy is to put the decision making power in the hands of "clumsy institutions," institutions that cultivate a plurality of views and approaches.
At this second U.S.-Japan Task Force seminar, delegates and observers of UNCED explored the underlying ethical concerns at Rio, points of convergence relating to the normative content of policy options, and prospects for U.S.-Japan cooperation.
At this first meeting of the U.S.-Japan Task Force on the Environment, 34 international environment specialists, political scientists, U.S.-Japan policy analysts, and business leaders addressed the concerns of those who believe that U.S.-Japan cooperation on the environment is key to resolving many of today's environmental crises.
