This edited collection brings together an impressive array of
authors from the world of international trade, the environment and
public health. Each of them is eminently well-placed to bring their
own particular expertise to bear on the issue at hand, and to do so
in a knowledgeable and stimulating manner. This Research Handbook
is a must for anyone interested in these overlapping fields of law
and policy whether as a basis for learning or as a resource for
further research.' - Mary Footer, University of Nottingham School
of Law, UK'This fantastic collection of essays explores the
multiple intersections between trade and environment in the WTO.
The contributions by leading scholars are theoretically engaged
whilst practical in their focus. It is a 'must read' for those
concerned to ensure that trade liberalisation does not stand in the
way of sustainable development, including urgently needed action to
mitigate the risks and consequences of climate change.' - Joanne
Scott, University College London, UK 'Geert Van Calster and Denise
Prevost have managed to induce virtually all the great experts on
health, environment and WTO law to contribute to their Research
Handbook on these subjects. The result is undoubtedly an excellent
volume that should adorn the bookcase of any and all interested in
the important problem of the relation between international
rule-making and regulatory autonomy of states in this area of
international economic law.' - Pieter Jan Kuijper, University of
Amsterdam, The Netherlands This Handbook provides state-of-the-art
analysis by leading authors on the links between the international
trade regime and health and environment concerns - concerns that
make up an increasing proportion of WTO dispute settlement.
Research Handbook on Environment, Health and the WTO surveys fields
as diverse as climate change mitigation, non-communicable diseases,
nanotechnology and public health care. The volume brings to the
fore the debates and complexities surrounding these issues and
their implications for the international trading system. The
Handbook begins in Part I with a survey of general issues that sets
a context for the more specific sectorial studies. Part II
considers the most pressing issues within health regulation and
trade law, whilst Part III is devoted to environmental regulation
and its interface with trade law. Part IV looks specifically at
aspects of the dispute settlement process and in particular
standard of review, and the book concludes in Part V with a
consideration of the impact of trade measures on the health and
environment regimes of emerging economies. This comprehensive yet
concise Handbook will appeal to academics and researchers in
international trade law and environmental law, as well as trade law
practitioners. Contributors include: A. Accuri, A. Alemanno, J.
