This book provides an
excellent overview of the legal issues surrounding climate change mitigation
and international trade law. It surveys key observed and potential challenges
posed by responses to climate change in terms of international trade law. By examining
the controversial issues seen in legal cases in which domestic climate change
or renewable energy measures conflicted with international trade regimes, this
volume promotes and broadens the understanding and debate of the issues. Beyond
the recognized challenges, this book uncovers potential areas of conflict
between climate change responses and international trade promotion by exploring
previous cases and current efforts to prevent climate change. Furthermore, this
volume sheds light on the future direction of international trade law and
climate change responses, pointing out that the development of climate change
or renewable energy laws and policies must also consider international trade
regimes in order to ensure the smooth implementation of said laws and policies
and guarantee that international trade laws do not restrict environmental
policy space.
