The book focuses on the interactions between international legal
regimes related to biodiversity governance. It addresses the
systemic challenges by analyzing the legal interactions between
international biodiversity law and related international law
applicable to economic activities, as well as issues related to the
governance of biodiversity based on functional, normative, and
geographic dimensions, in order to present a crosscutting, holistic
approach. The global COVID-19 pandemic, the imminent revision of
the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020, and the Aichi
Targets have created the momentum to focus on the interactions
between the Convention on Biological Diversity and other
international environmental regimes. Firstly, it discusses the
principles that inspire biodiversity-related conventional law, the
soft law that conveys targets for enforcement of the Biodiversity
Convention, their structural, regulatory and implementation gaps,
the systemic relations arising from national interests, and the
role of scientific advisory bodies in biodiversity-related
agreements. The second part then addresses interactions in specific
conventional frameworks, such as the law of multilateral trade and
global public health, and the participation of communities in the
management of genetic resources. Lastly, the third part illustrates
these issues using four case studies focusing on the challenges for
sustainability and marine biodiversity in small islands, the Arctic
Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, and the Mediterranean Sea, as a way to
strengthen a horizontal and joint approach. The book is primarily
intended for academics, researchers, and students interested in
international environmental law and policy and in interactions for
creating conditions for fair, sustainable, and resilient
environmental development. By offering an analysis of instruments
and criteria for systemic relations in those areas, it will also
appeal to public and private actors at the domestic and
international level.
