International Environmental Law

Fairness, Effectiveness, and World Order

Beschreibung

This book provides a detailed analysis of the rules and future trends of the law and policy for the protection of environment and natural resources. The author examines the current international environmental legislation and court decisions as well as various policymaking instruments so as to draw conclusions on whether the current instruments have been fair in terms of distribution of natural resources between wealthy and poorer nations; effective in protecting the environment and alleviating the costs of environmental externalities; and capable of maintaining a peaceful world order.
