This volume is a companion to The Law of Energy for Sustainable Development. Here the IUCN Academy of Environmental Law assembles for the first time a volume of legal instruments which can be recognized as constituting the core of the law of energy for sustainable development. This volume will be an essential reference for all those involved in environmental and energy research.
This is the first comprehensive environmental law book based primarily on materials from Asia and the Pacific, designed to provide appropriate resources for academics and other trainers in environmental law in the region. It adopts a broad view of sustainable development as being the basis of modern environmental law, with emphasis on social justice and equity. The first volume is predominantly applicable to national and local environmental laws while the second volume predominantly deals with international environmental law and regional cooperation.
