“…Almer & Goeschl (2010) exploram dados em painel (quinze estados alemães e período de dez anos) para estudar o efeito impeditivo da execução criminal sobre ofensas ambientais na Alemanha. As principais contribuições do trabalho são o exame dos dados para comprovar a hipótese de que sanções criminais (como o encarceramento e as multas pesadas) têm sucesso em impedir crimes ambientais e a determinação das contribuições individuais dos diferentes tipos de sanções sobre o efeito impeditivo.…”

Such evidence indicates that command and control may be more effective by utilising the power of public opinion to achieve environmental policy objectives.…”
