Présentation de l'éditeur

Regulation, Enforcement and Governance of Environmental Law is a selection of some of his most important writings and is focused on material concerned with major themes concerning the nature of regulation, institutional arrangements, and enforcement that underlie the substantive detail of the law. The book is divided into six core chapters. Regulatory Reform is concerned with key issues concerning regulatory design, and in particular the current debates on whether traditional British approaches towards constructing regulatory sanctions are best suited to contemporary needs. It includes the text of the final report of Professor Macrory's recent Review of Regulatory Sanctions commissioned by the Cabinet Office. Institutional Reform and Change considers challenges to current institutional arrangements, including the need for a specialized environmental courts and tribunals, and the environmental implications of the major constitutional changes that have taken place in the United Kingdom in the last decade. The Dynamics of Environmental Law contains material which reflects on the shifting dynamics of environmental law as it copes with changing expectations of how we how we handle the development of new environmental standards, the opportunities of new technologies to assist enforcement, and the need to develop new notions of responsibility. The Courts and the Environment considers how the courts have grappled with the interpretation of environmental legislation and the development of legal principle. It is based on Professor Macrory's In Court analysis in ENDS Report, and covers some of the leading environmental cases over the last decade both in the European Court of Justice and the higher British courts. The last two chapters focus on the European dimensions. Europe and the Environment is largely concerned with key principles of European Community law such as environmental integration, free trade, and subsidiarity and how these influence and interact with the development of environmental law. The final chapter, Supra-national Enforcement of Environmental Law considers the enforcement of Community environmental law, and the unique mechanisms that have been developed under the European Treaty to ensure that Member States comply with their obligations. The last thirty years has seen an unprecedented development in both the substantive body of environmental legislation and in thinking about underlying principles and institutional arrangements. With environmental challenges ever growing in scope and complexity, it becomes more important than ever to consider the role of law and the design of effective institutional arrangements to meet the demands that will face society. The material in Regulation, Enforcement and Governance of Environmental Law reflects the author's distinctive career as both a distinguished scholar and as someone with unrivalled experience of the environmental policy and legal world. The result is a collection that provides an insightful and important analysis for anyone concerned with the practice and future development of environmental law and policy.
