| Description | The concepts of political modernization are strongly influenced and shaped by the environmental problematic. The concept of ecological modernization goes back to a debate in the Berlin municipal parliament on 22nd January 1982, when the environmental representative of one of the opposition political parties suggested to the government four ecological modernizations: in industry, in the energy sector, in the mobility sector, and in the construction sector. The first stages of the institutionalization of environmental policy consist of add-on organizations of state environmental protection policy. In the next stage, policy making is about taking integrated, polluter-related measures directed at target groups. In this second phase, it becomes clear that the classical bureaucratic intervention mode is hardly able to mobilize willingness to change from the side of polluters and to trigger their innovation potentials. Problem-related, ad-hoc constellations of involved actors — with or without the participation of the state — here often prove to be faster and more efficient.
