Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book presents readers with a new theory and practice of international human rights law that is designed to improve its protection of the environmental rights of future generations. Arguing that international law is currently unable to safeguard future generations from foreseeable environmental harm, Bridget Lewis proposes that the law needs to be reformed in the interests of achieving intergenerational justice. The book draws on different theories of intergenerational responsibility to articulate a fresh approach, revising both substantive principles of environmental rights and procedural rules of admissibility and standing. It looks at several case studies to explore how the proposed new approach would apply in relation to contemporary environmental challenges like fracking, deep seabed mining, nuclear energy, decarbonisation and geoengineering. The book will be of value to academics, lawyers and policy-makers wanting to improve the application of international human rights law to future environmental problems. It suggests new interpretations of human rights law and principles and illustrates how these could be used in relation to specific environmental challenges. This item is printed on demand.
