Description and Table of Contents
Description
Environmental problems have raised new difficulties for traditional social, political and legal theory as well as re-posed traditional problems in an acute form. The first part of the book considers the questions about justice raised by environmental crises. The second part examines the ramifications environmental conflicts have for the political theory of property and markets, whilst the third section considers the implications of developments of environmental law.
