Sobre IBD

This book develops a new theory of 'identity' ecological modernization (EM), to analyze renewable history and policy development in many of the world’s states, which are leading the drive to install renewable energy. 'Identity EM' concerns how an industry has arisen allied to environmental NGOs to challenge the ascendancy of conventional energy technologies.
