This shift comes with several theoretical benefits.

The Environmental Race to the Bottom, Revisited
Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study revisits the environmental race to the bottom thesis in the United States, which argues that states compete for mobile capital by relaxing environmental regulations.
