Details

  • First book to examine the case for a constitutional right to an adequate environment from the perspective of political, rather than legal, theory
  • A cutting edge topic, widely debated, but having thus far received little scholarly attention
  • Cross-disciplinary appeal to political theorists, philosophers, legal and environmental scholars

Readership: Scholars and students of Political Theory, Philosophy, Law, and Geography, especially those interested in the protection of the environment and constitutional human rights; policy makers and campaigners concerened with environmental protection and rights
