Analyzing globalization and the increasing tension it has caused
between the goals of free trade and environmental protection,
International Trade and the Protection of the Environment provides
a comprehensive and detailed legal analysis, both at the national
and international level of what looks set to become the new legal
order of the twenty-first Century.
This book as the questions does the treatment of 'measures
tantamount to expropriation' have the capacity to lead to a
'regulatory chill' on environmental protection and what are the
possibilities for claims before the UK courts that are based on
alleged violations of international law?
The author offers:
- an informed and critical commentary on the continuing
controversy on GMO products, in particular on the recent WTO award
in the EC-Biotech dispute
- a comparison of the treatment of the expropriation under NAFTA
and bilateral investment treaties with position under article one
of the first protocol of the European convention on human
rights
- an analysis of the human rights dimension to claims for
environmental damage against multi-national corporations, focusing
particularly on claims in the US under the Alien Trot Claims Act
1789.
Incisive and current, this text is a valuable tool for
postgraduate law students studying international and commercial
law.
