Publisher's Synopsis
In recent years there has been growing awareness that a major reason for the worsening global environment is the failure to create adequate institutional responses to fully address the scope, magnitude and complexity of environmental problems. Much of the criticism directed at the global institutions has focused on the necessity for greater coordination and synergism among environmental institutions, policies and legal instruments, and the need for approaches that take better account of the inter to relationships between ecological and societal systems. This book seeks to fill the gap in Knowledge and policy to making that exists, particularly in international law.
