Produktbeschreibung
It ferrets out the philosophical and practical bases for differential treatment in environmental treaties, and creates a framework within which differential treatment can be assessed. It suggests certain boundaries to differential treatment in international environmental law, and explores in detail the reach of differential treatment in the climate regime. The conflict between industrial and developing countries has thus far significantly impaired the ambition of the international environmental agenda. The relevance of this book lies in its ability to provide a principled framework within which the conflict between industrial and developing countries in the international environmental realm can be examined and resolved.
With increasing disparities between nations, worsening poverty, and divergent historical, economic and political realities the international community faces significant hurdles in crafting a common platform for environmental action. The integration of countries into international environmental regimes is a central challenge. Differential treatment refers to the use of norms that provide different, or more advantageous treatment to some states. This book explores the value of differential treatment for developing countries, and examines the basis for and boundaries of differential treatment in international environmental law.
