The law of adaptation to climate change : U.S. and international aspects / edited by Michael B. Gerrard & Katrina Fischer Kuh. American Bar Association, Section of Environment, Energy, and Resources, 2012. K3585.5.L39 2012
The
laws that attempt to reduce climate change are well known. But what about
laws to deal with the climate change that will occur regardless of these
efforts? The Law of Adaptation to Climate Change takes a sweeping look
at the current and proposed legal aspects of coping with climate change--from
drought, extreme precipitation, heat waves, and wild fires to global shifts
in temperature, sea level, water and food supply, coastal conditions,
infrastructure, ecosystems, and human health and economies. This compendium
examines how laws are being modified, finessed, or imagined to deal with the
impacts of climate change, both in the United States and around the globe. Janet
Ulph & Ian Smith. The illicit trade in art and antiquities :
international recovery and criminal and civil liability. Hart, 2012. KD7869.U57
2012 The
Illicit Trade in Art and Antiquities provides practical guidance on the
modern law relating to cultural objects which have been stolen, looted or
illegally exported. It explains how English criminal law principles,
including money laundering measures, apply to those who deal in cultural
objects in a domestic or international setting. It also discusses the recovery
of works of art and antiquities in the English courts where there are
competing claims between private individuals, or between individuals and the
UK Government or a foreign State. Additionally, the problems posed in
attempting to curb trafficking in art and antiquities are explored and the
effectiveness of the current law is analyzed. |
