A propos de cet article

Good+. Hardcover, xi + 398 pages, NOT ex-library. Limited signs of gentle wear, good+ condition with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Shelfworn boards. Issued without a dust jacket. -- The volume explores the critical intersection between science, law, and risk regulation in global governance, providing an extensive analysis of how international legal frameworks manage scientific uncertainty and regulate risks related to environmental protection, public health, and safety. Focusing on global challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and transboundary pollution, Peel examines the role of scientific expertise in shaping international risk regulation. The book highlights the tensions between scientific evidence and political decision-making, emphasizing the need for a coherent approach in risk governance. Through detailed case studies, Peel investigates how international organisations, such as the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the United Nations (UN), incorporate scientific findings into their regulatory processes. She also delves into the precautionary principle, a critical component of international risk regulation, explaining how it is applied in situations where scientific certainty is lacking but potential harm is significant. The contents cover a broad range of topics, including the challenges of interpreting and implementing international treaties based on scientific evidence, the use of expert panels in risk assessment, and the difficulties of harmonising risk regulation across different legal systems. Peel also addresses the political, legal, and ethical dimensions of scientific risk regulation, offering insights into how science influences lawmaking at the global level. Peel's analysis not only reflects on the existing international legal frameworks but also suggests improvements to ensure that global governance effectively manages risks in an era of rapid scientific and technological advancement. This book is essential for legal scholars, policy makers, and anyone involved in international environmental law, public health, and safety regulation.…
