edited by Gerd Winter, Richard Macrory and Ludwig Krämer: The last 50 years have seen the creation of a remarkable body of EU environmental legislation, policy, and case law. But in an era of international turbulence, the rule of law is repeatedly being challenged. Economic pressures have led to intensified questioning of environmental protection measures. Environmental degradation continues. This major new book is therefore a timely exploration of critical issues concerning the current EU environmental acquis.
