Description
Summary:The articles in this issue of Transnational Environmental Law (TEL) are a microcosm of the contemporary field of environmental law. They explore an array of topics such as the radical rethinking of the rights of nature; the role that contracts, public interest litigation, standards of judicial review and the common law play in shaping legal systems; and a basin-level review of a nutrient run-off governance regime. Together, they reflect the breadth of the environmental challenges we face, the range and sophistication of tools that are being deployed to address these challenges, and the intensity of conflict between ongoing, high-level efforts to reshape systems of environmental law and increasingly prolific and innovative efforts to engage in significant, widespread law reform.
