the last century. Both men met economic crisis that set a precedent in economic theory and crisis that had never been addressed before by the global market.

law of economics Environmental law primarily aims to internalise an externality, by forcing or incentivizing the polluter to take into account the pollution it is causing in its decision making process. Hence, environmental law and economic principles are deeply intertwined in order to better tackle environmental problems in a cost effective way. In fact, environmental law is viewed through the lens of economic efficiency by many economists and legislation-making bodies. Important economic principles

levels become less onerous. Government regulation hits our pocketbooks as surely as taxes do, but there is little information available about its cost. At a time when deficit spending is out of favour, and there is little appetite for tax increases, this lack of accountability makes regulation a tempting way for governments to achieve their goals without increasing their spending. Between 1975 and 1999, over 117,000 new federal and provincial regulations were enacted, an average of 4,700 every year

between nations has depleted natural resources, but the question as to whether current trade policies augment or temper environmental degradation is currently under contention. One view is that environmental regulations will create "pollution havens" in countries where there are less stringent regulations, simply relocating environmental damage to a country where the environment is worth less.

Regulation of Industry: When does an industry need to be regulated and when should the market be left to determine price and product?

Introduction/Thesis The aim of this special study is to examine how the law regulating social housing has transformed since the 1950’s to more self-regulation. This scatters accountability to multiple actors– leaving the state largely unaccountable when something goes wrong. Considering the sources below, I aim to propose a solution that shifts accountability to a single body – state. The state must accept the role as the primary enforcer or provide adequate funds to enable specialised regulatory
of many of our currently used economic principles. Stigler taught at the University of Chicago, where he worked closely with Milton Freidman. George Stigler was said to be quite brilliant in his field and yet, he kept a confident wit about himself that was said to help his students enjoy and understand economics.

Consequences of Environmental Regulations Pollution can be defined many ways. The dictionary defines the act of polluting as: “to make unhealthily impure.” But what exactly does the word “unhealthy” imply? Take, for example, a paper mill. Trees are cut down to make paper. In the act of making paper, the mill dumps byproducts into the water of a nearby lake; and spews smoke into the air. The act of cutting down trees is unhealthy to the animals that use the forest as their habitat.
