Julio
Barboza. The environment, risk and liability in international law.
Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, 2011. K579.L5B368
2010 Risk has always been an element of life. Yet modern
technology continues to spread environmentally hazardous activity beyond
State boundaries. These hazardous—yet socially useful—activities exist in a
grey area between legality and wrongfulness. This book explains the important
role liability plays in risk management and environmental protection, within
the realm of International Law. The text explores questions such as the
lawfulness of acts which negatively affect the environment, as well as who
should be liable for transfrontier damages. |

2011 This book provides a detailed overview, analysis, and critique of the Justice and Home Affairs Law of the European Union. This new edition has been updated and expanded to take account of the major changes introduced by the Treaty of Lisbon and recent developments in legislation and case-law. It includes analysis of the widened jurisdiction of the EU's Court of Justice, the revised rules on the participation of the UK, Ireland and Denmark and relations with non-EU countries, and of the impact of the new framework for human rights law in the EU. |
