This book analyzes the law and policy for the management of global
common resources. As competing demands on the global commons are
increasing, the protection of environment and the pursuit of growth
give rise to all sorts of conflicts. It also analyzes issues in the
protection of the global commons from a fairness, effectiveness and
world order perspective. The author examines whether policymaking and
trends point to a fair allocation of global common resources that is
effective in protecting the environment and the pursuit of sustainable
development. The author looks at the cost-effectiveness of
international environmental law and applies theories of national
environmental law to international environmental problems. Chapters
include analysis on areas such as marine pollution, air pollution,
fisheries management, transboundary water resources, biodiversity,
hazardous and radioactive waste management, state responsibility and
liability.
