Abstract
Focuses on recent environmental decline and market failure to account adequately for environmental values. Looks beyond economics and market failure, and highlights the role of politics and government failure. To remedy poor political performance in respect of the environment, advances the primacy of constitutional reform, entailing the prescription of minimum environmental safeguards. Recommends greater use of referenda as well as the electoral system of proportional representation. In respect of the international and global dimensions of environmental problems, stresses the need for a supranational constitution or charter to restrain single sovereign nations from blocking the united welfare of countries.
