Abstract

The principal obstacles to environmental compliance and enforce meant in developing countries resolve around constraints that are political, economic, and institutional. As demonstrated in the Japanese case studies, effective responses have often required consensus and commitment at the local government and community levels. Although there are many instances when implementation is hindered by lack of technical skills or lack of the needed technology, the underlying constraints are rarely technological.
