Résumé
Environmental principles – from the polluter pays and precautionary
principles to the principles of integration and sustainability –
proliferate in domestic and international legal and policy discourse,
reflecting key goals of environmental protection and sustainable
development on which there is apparent political consensus.
Environmental principles also have a high profile in environmental law,
beyond their popularity as policy and political concepts, as ideas that
might unify the subject and provide it with conceptual foundations or
boost its delivery of environmental outcomes. However, environmental
principles are elusive legal concepts.
This book deepens the
legal understanding of environmental principles in light of recent legal
developments. It analyses the increasing legal effects of environmental
principles in different jurisdictions and demonstrates how they are
shaping and revealing innovative and evolving bodies of environmental
law. This analysis is a step forward in understanding a key feature of
modern environmental law and presents a robust methodology for dealing
with novel legal concepts in the subject. It also makes a contribution
to environmental policy debates and discussions internationally that
rely heavily on environmental principles, including their supposed legal
effects.
