This book offers a multi-disciplinary and multi-national approach to defining key elements required to define power within the maritime domain.

International Watercourses Law and Multilateral Environmental Agreements

  • Categories: Law
  • Type: Book

  • Publisher: BRILL

This book anchors its arguments in Article 20 of the Watercourses Convention and explores consistencies and inconsistencies in parallel definitions, substantive and procedural obligations and institutional arrangements in IWL, and the Ramsar and Biodiversity Conventions with respect to the protection and preservation of ecosystems of shared inland waters. Dr. Yang Liu argues that the all-around informed and integrated application of IWL and MEAs is essential for the effective protection and preservation of shared inland water ecosystems. However, the degree of cross-fertilization of parallel provisions should be examined on a case-by-case basis in light of the legal analytical framework deployed in this study.

TRATADO PARA A REALIZAÇÃO EFETIVA DO DIREITO NO MEIO AMBIENTE

La obra es una recopilación de artículos de diversos pensadores que aportan una preocupación por el derecho fundamental a un medio ambiente sano y por la sociedad actual. Varios temas son abordados desde la perspectiva de diversos países, aportando una visión importante para la cooperación entre las naciones con el fin de minimizar los problemas socio-ambientales derivados de la sociedad de consumo contemporánea. Concluimos que debe haber un cambio de racionalidad, donde las personas entiendan su función en la sociedad como ciudadanos participativos. Estas funciones de participación, ya sea a través de políticas públicas locales que les hagan sentir que pertenecen, o a través de una idea de cooperación social basada en el hecho de que estos ciudadanos interactúan en torno al bien común, la solidaridad y la empatía. Otro elemento que necesita cambios y una resignificación es la forma del sistema capitalista centrado en la visión de lucro de las grandes corporaciones que crean patrones de consumo, cuyo único objetivo es el lucro, sin importar lo que pueda ocurrir en la esfera social y ambiental”.
