Description

Environmental law and governance is of central concern to commercial and corporate activity, in ways that are not limited to understanding the rules and regulations of any particular jurisdiction.

Rather than a very general 鈥榠ntroduction鈥� to environmental law, this module offers rigorous examination of environmental governance issues, such as those outlined in the syllabus below, that are particularly relevant for corporate or commercial lawyers, and that are transferable between environmental topics and between jurisdictions.

This module is also designed with environmental law specialists in mind. Working in environmental law and policy will almost inevitably involve, in one way or another, working with global business. Further, the detailed scholarly approach means that this module will enrich the study of environmental law and policy by adding a different perspective, and by addressing additional substantive areas of law and governance
