Seeking to stake out common ground between trade unionists, environmental and community activists, and scientific and medical researchers, this volume brings together 34 important contributions from New Solutions: a Journal of Environmental and Occupational Health Policy. The book identifies major health and safety hazards, describes their impact on workers and communities, and surveys a range of possible solutions. Exploring the multifaceted relationship among environmental politics, economic justice, and occupational health, chapters cover a broad range of topics including the changing structure of the workplace; industrial diseases and health care; special concerns of women and minorities; risk assessment controversies; pollution prevention; and the politics of industrial policy.
