The ozone layer is threatened by chemical emissions, the climate is endangered from fossil fuels and deforestation, and global biodiversity is being lost by reason of thousands of years of habitat conversionsахпяй Global environmental problems arise out of the accumulated impacts from many years' and many countries' economic development In order to address these problems the states of the world must cooperate to manage their development processes together - this is what internбешбнational environmental agreements are designed to do But can the world's countries cooperate successfully to manage global development? How should they manage it? Who should pay for the process, as well as for the underlying problems? This book presents an examination of both the problems and the processes underlying international environmental lawmaking: the recognition of international interdependence, the negotiation of international agreements and the evolution of international бпаесresource management It examines the general problem of global resource management by means of general principles and case studies and by looking at how and why specific negotiations and agreements have failed to achieve their targets Авторы Timothy Swanson Timothy Swanson Sam Johnston Sam Johnston.
