Environmental Law and the Global South: Principles, Practice and Prospect

Environmental Law and the Global South: Principles, Practice, and Prospects offers a foundational, thematically structured, and critically informed account of environmental law as it applies to and evolves within the Global South. The volume explores the conceptual foundations, legal regimes, and institutional architectures of environmental law through the lens of equity, postcolonial critique, and sustainable development imperatives. Engaging with international, regional, and national legal frameworks, it addresses critical topics such as climate change, biodiversity, hazardous waste, trade and investment, technology transfer, compliance mechanisms, and energy transitions. The book is intended as an advanced, accessible guide for postgraduate students, researchers, and practitioners, offering rigorous doctrinal and analytical insight into one of the most important frontiers of environmental law.
