Description
Environmental Law: A Complex and Controversial Field Environmental law is a vast area of law that addresses environmental problems, operating from local to global levels. While it may seem straightforward to protect the environment, in practice, environmental law is a complex and contentious field, involving conflicting interests and socio-political conflicts. This Very Short Introduction provides an overview of the main features of environmental law, discussing its challenges and limitations. It explores how societies around the world have developed robust bodies of law to address environmental issues, including nation statehood, power, and the role of law in reframing environmental problems. The book also examines the need for real environmental improvements and environmental justice. By understanding the complexities of environmental law, readers can gain insight into a critical area of law that is both necessary and inherently controversial.
