PACHECO-VEGA, Raúl. Las denuncias ciudadanas sobre cumplimiento ambiental en América del Norte (1996-2012): perspectivas sobre la sociedad civil ambientalista norteamericana. Norteamérica [online]. 2013, vol.8, n.1, pp.77-108. ISSN 2448-7228.
A citizen complaint presented to the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) of North America is a non-binding mechanism used by civil society to denounce incompliance with U.S., Canadian, and Mexican environmental legislation. Using a data base of citizens' complaints (1996-2012), this article offers an evaluation of the mechanism in three areas: a) perceptible influence on the three North American governments; b) performance and influence on sub-national levels; and c) patterns of historic evolution.
