Towards a "second Generation" in Environmental Laws in the Asian and Pacific Region: Select TrendsLin Heng Lye, Maria Socorro Z. Manguiat IUCN, 2003 - 193 pages Laws in the twentieth century were based on economic growth and development. This new century calls for the reassessment of all laws from an environmental perspective in consideration of such looming environmental concerns as global warming, degradation of biodiversity and pollution. This book captures some provoking thoughts raised during a symposium on second generation environmental laws held in Japan in 2002. The wide range of articles will promote greater understanding of what has been achieved with the first generation of environmental laws, what is needed for the second generation, and how to bridge the two. |
