This book examines the imperative role of global environmental
governance, and the need to incorporate corporate environmental
accountability and mechanisms for enforcement, to effectively
address the global environmental crisis. The author, Felix M.
Edoho, Sr., examines the issues at the various global, national,
and regional levels. In Part I the book examines the issues at the
global level and looks at the impact of transnational corporations
and globalization on the global environmental crisis. Furthermore,
it also examines the efforts of the UN in initiating global
environmental architecture to tackle the crisis. Part II considers
the issues at the national level and focuses on Nigeria. The author
explores Nigeria’s regulatory and institutional framework for
environmental governance and implementation. Lastly, at the
regional level in Part III, the discourse centres on how decades of
oil exploration and production have unleashed monumental ecological
tragedies in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria due to the lack of
corporate environmental accountability. This book will be of great
interest to academics and students who are interested in broadening
their knowledge of environmental governance and policy in
developing countries. It will also be of value to environmental
regulatory agencies and public administrators, development
professionals, and transnational corporations.
