Routledge A Global Environmental Right - Environmental Studies

A Global Environmental Right, part of the Routledge Explorations in Environmental Studies series, addresses the long-standing debate over the development of an international substantive environmental right. While environmental rights have previously developed in a fragmented manner through various legal regimes, this book explores the potential for a unified global environmental right. By examining how such a right could create legal duties for all types of decision-makers, the text provides a foundation for a new system of international environmental governance. Using a problem-solving approach, the book demonstrates how logical and straightforward changes to existing frameworks can help bridge current gaps in international law. This work is a valuable resource for those studying legal regimes, environmental policy, and the evolution of global governance structures.
