For some time now, environmental enforcement networks have been
part of the very fabric of environmental law. Yet, academic
research has somewhat neglected them. This book is a game-changer.
It shows just how 'smart' enforcement networks have become, and
indeed need to be, in the never-ending struggle for effectiveness
of environmental protection: they operate horizontally or
vertically, locally and globally, top-down and bottom-up, often
through citizens engagement and always in search for greater
effectiveness. The book's contributions from a wide range of
environmental scholars and professionals give the impression of a
fascinating new development, i.e. the increasing role of civil
society in global environmental governance.' - Klaus Bosselmann,
University of Auckland, New Zealand'This book is a fascinating and
original study of a little known phenomenon of environmental
enforcement networks. In 26 chapters of this volume the reader is
presented with ample examples of environmental enforcement networks
in the world. The editors of this book achieved a great success in
presenting this question in almost all continents. The contributing
authors of this book, theorists and practitioners, present an
in-depth overview of the role of networks in compliance with
environmental obligations. It is a very well-informed and honest
book, from which a very complex picture of enforcement networks
emerges. This volume is one of the most important and indispensable
contributions to understanding the problem of the enforcement of
environmental law in general.' - Malgosia Fitzmaurice, Queen Mary
University of London, UK Compliance and enforcement is a
fundamental issue within environmental law. But despite its
pertinence, it is an area that has been neglected in academic
research. Addressing this gap, this timely book considers the
circumstances under which networking can increase the effectiveness
of environmental enforcement. Presenting a general theory of how
and why networking can increase the effectiveness of environmental
enforcement, expert contributors ascertain the potential benefits
of environmental enforcement networks. Specific criteria and
benchmarks are provided, indicating under which circumstances
networking may increase the competency of environmental
enforcement. The book explores theoretical and empirical
discussions of the benefits of networks, offering a discerning
assessment of enforcement networks' influence on environmental
protection. It also examines issue based examples of networks, such
as networks dealing with transboundary waste or wildlife. In
addition to this, environmental enforcement in particular areas,
such as the US, Europe, Australia or Africa, is considered.
Academics in environmental law and policy will benefit from this
thorough overview of an important phenomenon. In addition,
practitioners and policy makers will appreciate the valuable
insights presented. Contributors include: M. Angelov, B. Araba
