This new study shows how environmental issues represent a deep
problem in conceptualising the relationship between human beings
and nature. This key relationship grounds the implicit ethical and
political concerns of International Relations and our
understandings of environmental politics. It demonstrates that the
core theoretical orientations of the study of International
Relations are not only incapable of understanding and responding to
contemporary problems, but are profoundly complicit in creating the
ecological problems in the first place. This major book develops a
sense of these realities based on the thinking of Martin Heidegger.
It forwards new ways of rethinking the environmental questions and
addresses crucial issues such as sovereignty, the International Law
of The Sea, the Kyoto Protocol, Northern Alaskan oil exploration
and exploitation and the impact of the United Nations Convention on
the Law of The Sea III. This is essential specialist reading for
readers concerned with the environment.
