This book focuses on how public and private international law
address civil liability for transboundary pollution. In public
international law, civil liability treaties promote the
implementation of minimum procedural standards in domestic tort
law. This approach implicitly relies on private international law
to facilitate civil litigation against transboundary polluters. Yet
this connection remains poorly understood. Filling the gap, this
book engages in a meaningful dialogue between the two areas and
explores how domestic private international law can reflect the
policies developed in international environmental law. It begins
with an investigation of civil liability in international
environmental law. It then identifies preferable rules of civil
jurisdiction, foreign judgments and choice of law for environmental
damage, using Canadian private international law as a case study
and making extensive references to European law. Liability for
transboundary pollution is a contentious issue of the law, both in
scholarship and practice: international lawyers both private and
public as well as environmental lawyers will welcome this important
work.
