| Resumen: |
Este libro ofrece información reciente sobre algunos de los temas candentes de nuestros tiempos: el cambio climático, la exposición a sustancias quÃmicas, los problemas de los refugiados y el daño ecológico que acompaña a las situaciones de conflicto. Reúne a un grupo de académicos pioneros, en su mayorÃa expertos jurÃdicos pero también pensadores de diversas disciplinas cientÃficas, para discutir preocupaciones de todo el mundo: desde Australia y Nueva Zelanda hasta Canadá y Estados Unidos, pasando por paÃses europeos como Alemania, Italia, Gran Bretaña y la República Checa, asà como el continente africano. Al presentar la jurisprudencia más reciente relacionada con el clima y la ecologÃa, asà como análisis de las cuestiones conceptuales que subyacen a los problemas internacionales, cubre la extinción de especies, el papel básico de las mujeres y los pueblos indÃgenas en la protección del medio ambiente, el fracaso de los estados actuales para proteger el derecho humano a un medio ambiente seguro y a la salud pública, los daños derivados de la actual producción industrial de alimentos y los problemas resultantes de una economÃa orientada al crecimiento. Por último, el libro examina varios principios y regulaciones legales internacionales que se han propuesto para defender los derechos ecológicos globales. |

| Summary : |
This book offers recent insights into some of the burning issues of our times: climate change, exposure to chemicals, refugee issues and the ecological harm that accompanies conflict situations. It brings together a group of pioneering scholars, mostly legal experts but also thinkers from various scientific disciplines, to discuss concerns from around the globe – from Australia and New Zealand, to Canada and the United States, European countries including Germany, Italy, Britain and the Czech Republic, as well as the African continent. Presenting the latest climate and ecology-related case law, as well as analyses of the conceptual issues that underlie international problems, it covers the extinction of species, the basic role of women and Indigenous peoples in protecting the environment, the failure of today's states to protect the human right to a safe environment and public health, the harm arising from the current industrial food production, and the problems resulting from a growth-oriented economy. Lastly, the book examines various international legal principles and regulations that have been proposed to defend global ecological rights. |
