Oxford handbook of international environmental law

The Oxford Handbook of International Environmental Law, edited by Lavanya Rajamani, provides a comprehensive analysis of the principles, treaties, and governance structures that form international environmental law. This handbook explores the development of legal frameworks that address pressing global environmental challenges, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, and sustainable resource management.

It brings together contributions from leading scholars and practitioners who examine the effectiveness of international agreements, the role of states and non-state actors, and the impact of environmental laws on global governance. The handbook also discusses evolving concepts such as the rights of nature, environmental justice, and the integration of human rights with environmental protection. By examining legal responses to environmental crises, this work highlights the complexities and innovations within international law aimed at achieving global sustainability and environmental resilience.
