Risk Regulation and Administrative Constitutionalism

  • Categories: Law

Over the last decade the regulatory evaluation of environmental and public health risks has been one of the most legally controversial areas of contemporary government activity. Much of that debate has been understood as a conflict between those promoting 'scientific' approaches to risk evaluation and those promoting 'democratic' approaches.

Environmental Law: A Very Short Introduction

  • Categories: Law
