尽管公众担心,政府的成本效益方法阻碍了乙烯氧化物 (EtO) 风险减轻. 这造成了环境正义问题,特别是在较低的社会阶层,突出了风险社会的困境.
科学领域:
- 环境科学 环境科学
- 公共政策 公共政策
- 社会学 社会学 社会学
背景情况:
- 美国环境保护局 (EPA) 在2016年将乙烯氧化物 (EtO) 重归类为致癌物.
- 在2018年之后,对EtO污染投诉的监管响应优先考虑了成本效益分析,而不是降低风险.
研究的目的:
- 调查EtO危害重新分类的治理和环境正义 (EJ) 结果.
- 分析监管方法如何限制风险减缓工作.
主要方法:
- 分析政府文件和采访.
- 在伊利诺伊州和乔治亚州的案例研究,重点关注ETO暴露和公共动员.
主要成果:
- 取决于路径的治理方法承认了公众的担忧,但尽量减少了机构变革成本,抑制了有效的风险减缓.
- 结构性和政治因素造成了环境结果与公众对EtO风险的期望之间的脱节.
结论:
- 接受EtO风险与乌尔里希·贝克的风险社会理论一致.
- 治理方法产生了重要的环境正义问题,因为它没有考虑到社会阶级在风险经验中的差异.
