In 1970 Earth Day was first celebrated marking the dawn of
worldwide environmental consciousness and the passing of many
environmental laws. In part, these events were the result of the
maturing of the science of ecology which recognized the
interdependence of the web and cycles of nature. This volume
explores the relationship between ecology and environmental law,
beginning with a description of the two very different disciplines.
This description is followed by a history of their episodic
interactions: the early period of origin, the mid-century formative
period from 1950 to 1970, the initial serious period of interaction
after Earth Day in 1970 and the testing of the relationship during
the next two decades. Utilizing a number of case studies,
examinations of the key 'linkage persons', legal instruments and
the migration of ecological concepts and frameworks, this book
analyzes the final flowering of an ecosystem regime which embraces
the connections between the two disciplines of ecology and
environmental law. Concluding with an inventory of the problems
posed by the relationship between the two disciplines and an agenda
for future research, this clearly structured, comprehensive and
stringent book is an essential resource for all serious scholars
and students of ecology and environmental law.
