International Natural Resources Law, Investment and Sustainability
provides a clear and concise insight into the relationship between
the institutions that govern foreign investment, sustainable
development and the rules and regulations that administer natural
resources. In this book, several leading experts explore different
perspectives in how investment and natural resources come together
to achieve sustainable development in developing countries with
examples from water, oil and gas, renewable energy, mineral,
agriculture, and carbon trading. Despite varying perspectives, it
is clear that several themes are central in considering the
linkages between natural resources, investment and sustainability.
Specifically, transparency, good governance and citizen empowerment
are vital conditions which encourage positive social, economic and
environmental outcomes for developing countries. In addition, this
book provides new insights into key concepts which underpin
international law, including sovereign rights and state
responsibility principles. It is clear from this book that in the
attempt to reconcile these concepts and principles from separate
legal regimes, complex policy questions emerge whereby it is
difficult to attain mutually beneficial or succinct outcomes. This
book explores how countries prioritise their policy objectives to
achieve their notion of sustainable natural resource use, which is
strongly influenced by power imbalances that inform North-South
cooperation, as well as South-South cooperation in the
international investment regime. This book will be of great
interest to students, academics and researchers of international
environmental law, international human rights law, international
investment law and international economic law. This book may also
be of relevance to environmentalists, policy-makers, NGOs, and
investors working in the natural resources field.
