Green and Brown? Globalization and the Environment
探讨全球化作为经济一体化过程,可能导致全球环境质量趋同或分化,即北方变绿而南方变棕,结果取决于全球化如何改变国家内外权力平衡。
Globalization - viewed as a process of economic integration that embraces governance as well as markets - could lead to worldwide convergence toward higher or lower environmental quality, or to environmental polarization in which the 'greening' of the global North is accompanied by the 'browning' of the global South. The outcome will not be dictated by an inexorable logic. Rather it will depend on how the opportunities created by globalization alter balances of power within countries and among them.
