This book examines liability for environmental harm in Antarctic,
deep seabed, and high seas commons areas, highlighting a unique set
of legal questions: Who has standing to claim environmental harms
in global commons ecosystems? How should questions of causation and
liability be addressed where harm arises from a variety of
activities by state and non-state actors? What kinds of harm should
be compensable in global commons ecosystems, which are remote and
characterized by high levels of scientific uncertainty? How can
practical concerns such as ensuring adequate funds for compensation
be resolved? This book provides the first in-depth examination and
evaluation of current rules and possible avenues for future legal
developments in this area of increasing importance for states,
international organizations, commercial actors, and legal and
governance scholars. This title is part of the Flip it Open
Programme and may also be available Open Access. Check our website
