The two distinct approaches to environmental policy include direct regulation-sometimes called 'command and control' policies-and regulation by economic, or market-based incentives.

Concepts, theories, and environmental rights may be valued through their implementation potential, and this forms the largest part of the book: how public participation is implemented in Europe - via the Aarhus Convention, within EU law and practice, and in national law. On the one hand, there are several surveys from Europe, partly thematic (GMO, waste), partly pragmatic (e.g. litigation), while, on the other hand, there are country examples, such as Ireland, as well as a special focus on Hungary - as the Jean Monnet Center of Excellence project, the sponsor of the book, has its center there. Beside special practical examples and even sociological surveys, there is now a unique legal instrument in Hungary which is introduced - that is the ombudsman (now deputy ombudsman) of future generations, the history, concept, and practice of which is discussed in details with many examples.
