自70年代初出现以来,环境政策领域在其内容、组织和工具方面发生了重大变化。迄今为止,对这些变化的研究主要是作为相关行动者的战略反应。本文旨在一方面从政治现代化的角度,另一方面从政策安排的更新的角度,设想最近环境政策的变化。政治现代化是指国家、市场和公民社会之间相互关系发生变化的结构性过程,是一种新的治理理念和实践。政策安排是指政策领域在政策话语、联盟、游戏规则和资源等方面的实质和组织。这一分析框架旨在对战略因素和结构因素造成的政策动态做出公正的评价。因此,它为理解环境政策最近的变化提供了新的视角,并证明有助于改进这些政策。
Since its emergence in the early seventies, the environmental policy domain has substantially changed in terms of its content, organisation and instrumentation. Hitherto these changes have been studied primarily as strategic responses of the actors involved. This article aims to conceive recent changes in environmental policies in terms of political modernisation on the one hand, and in terms of the renewal of policy arrangements on the other. Political modernisation refers to structural processes of changing interrelations between state, market and civil society, and to new conceptions and practices of governance. Policy arrangements refer to the substance and the organisation of policy domains in terms of policy discourses, coalitions, rules of the game and resources. This analytical framework aims to do justice to policy dynamics caused by both strategic and structural factors. It therefore provides new perspectives on the understanding of recent changes in environmental policy and also proves to be helpful in improving those policies.
