In The International Legal Status and Protection of Environmentally-Displaced Persons: A European Perspective, Hélène Ragheboom addresses the topical issue of displacement caused by environmental factors and analyses in particular whether affected persons, who are unable or unwilling to return to their country of origin due to the severe degradation of their living environment, could or, in the negative, should receive some form of international protection within the European Union. The author provides a detailed analysis of relevant instruments of refugee law and international human rights law, and explores possible future approaches to addressing the phenomenon of environmental displacement, ranging from constructive interpretations of existing norms to the allegedly preferable creation of a multidisciplinary sui generis framework.
Climate change and other environmental problems are increasingly leading to the displacement of populations from their homelands, whether this be through drought, flooding, famine or other causes. Worse, there is currently no protection in international law for people made refugees by such means.
The Law and Practice of the United Nations examines the law of the United Nations through an analysis of the Organization’s practice from its inception until the present, in particular to the transformations the UN has undergone since the end of the Cold War. Special consideration is given to Chapter VII of the UN Charter and its interpretation, the United Nations’ membership and organs’ competences, along with the peaceful settlement of disputes, and coercive action for the maintenance of international peace and security. In addition, this important new edition explores such areas as general and smart sanctions, peacekeeping, authorizations of the Security Council, territorial administrations, self-determination, human rights, financing of the Organization, acts adoptable by the UN organs, and a review of their legality. Offering a fully revised and updated analysis of the main legal issues surrounding the United Nations’ practice, The Law and Practice of the United Nations will be of interest to all those involved with legal issues surrounding the United Nations, the analysis of said issues, and their impacts on international practice

Ce livre fournit — avec présentation, annotation, appendices, bibliographie et index — l’édition critique et la traduction française de la, jusqu’ici inédite, Vieille Logique (Vetus Logica) tout uniment intitulée Points communs de logique (Communia logice) dans le manuscrit 16617 du fonds latin de la Bibliothèque nationale de France à Paris — l’appellation Pseudo-Robert Grosseteste étant tirée d’une attribution (fautive) d’un second manuscrit, salmantin : voir, dans la même collection, Les philosophies morale et naturelle. Le manuscrit 16617 est singulier parce que, encore considéré aujourd’hui comme « d’une suprême importance pour l’histoire de la logique...

La 4e de couv. indique : "Le nouveau formalisme juridique ouvre des perspectives de recherche vers l'innovation juridique pour relever les défis que posent les catastrophes. Il faut des nouvelles normes, «des nouvelles représentations des systèmes de droit». Claude Lienhard soulignait qu'il s'agit «de penser et de classer autrement. [...] Le nouvel ordonnancement que nous percevons impliquera certainement un prix à payer du point de vue de l'orthodoxie juridique [...]». Référence est donc faite au recours à l'innovation dans la mesure où le domaine du traitement des risques collectifs invite à raisonner selon un ordre juridique beaucoup plus complexe que l'ordre traditionnel ide...
One of the most significant impacts of climate change is migration. Yet, to date, climate-induced migrants are falling within what has been defined by some as a ‘protection gap’. This book addresses this issue, first by identifying precisely where the gap exists, by reviewing the relevant legal tools that are available for those who are currently, and who will in the future be displaced because of climate change. The authors then address the relevant actors; the identity of those deserving protection (displaced individuals), as well as other bearers of rights (migration-hosting states) and obligations (polluting states). The authors also address head-on the contentious topic of definitio...
