Review "A remarkably well-stated presentation of complex environmental history and political relationships in three Eastern European countries, with good research, clear thinking, and equally clear exposition."--Eugene B. Skolnikoff, Professor Emeritus of Political Science, MIT "This is the first published analysis of the impacts of the process of enactment and application of EU environmental legislation in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. On the basis of originally researched case histories it assesses the impacts of this process on industrial structures and costs and on the interplay of industrial, political, and advocacy group interests in the legislative process. It is highly recommended reading not only for academics and experts but for all those interested in the future development of EU environmental regulation and in the solution of global environmental issues." Tom Garvey, Member of the Board, Russian Regional Environmental Centre, Moscow, Formerly Deputy Director General for Environment, European Commission "This is the first published analysis of the impacts of the *process* of enactment and application of EU environmental legislation in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe.
