The book explores the contrasting regulatory approaches of the United States and the European Union regarding public health and environmental challenges in the early 21st century. It highlights how the U.S. has relaxed regulations on recycling, hazardous chemicals, and food labeling, while the EU has adopted stricter measures. The divergence is attributed not to cultural attitudes towards risk, but to differing regulatory tradeoffs: the U.S. prioritizes competitiveness, whereas the EU balances environment, competitiveness, and integration.
