International Environmental Law

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'This is an excellent book, well organized and clearly written ... It provides an innovative approach to the analysis of international environmental law, not as a self-standing system ... but as an inseparable part of public international law, including the law on the protection of human rights, on foreign investments, security and international trade. The cross-cutting influence of environmental law within these fields is treated by the authors with original insights, exceptional systematic skill and a wealth of important documentation. This book is an indispensable tool for academics and practitioners who are confronted with the central issue of our time, how to strike a proper balance between economic development and environmental protection.' Francesco Francioni, European University Institute, Florence and LUISS, Rome 'This book offers a great overview of a fast developing domain of knowledge. This comprehensive introduction guides students through theories, concepts and doctrines within this expanding law discipline.' Jacko A. van Ast, Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam 'This new text offers an inclusive and lucid account of modern international environmental law. It respects the particular features of each sub-field of the law while emphasising the links between them. It is thoroughly to be recommended.' James Crawford, International Court of Justice '[This textbook] is very highly recommended for scholars, students and practitioners, as it analyses international environmental law in its entirety in a very scholarly fashion. The great value of this book is that it approaches international environmental law as part and parcel of international law. It is a very analytical textbook, providing a very valuable and solid knowledge of international environmental law. Due to its in-depth analytical and scholarly approach, it has a very long shelf-life.' Malgosia Fitzmaurice, Queen Mary, University of London
