This extensive volume of the Elgar Encyclopedia of Environmental Law probes the essential concepts, contemporary research, and key elements of law at the intersection of international trade and international environmental law. Its succinct, structured entries provide a definitive and comprehensive assessment of the interactions between these fields, written by internationally renowned and recognized experts.

Analysing the key legal issues and questions raised by the impact of trade on the environment, the volume offers a thorough overview of the relationship between the World Trade Organization and the rules of environmental law, sustainability, and climate change. Each entry constitutes a nuanced and lucid introduction to the major cross-cutting topics in these dynamic fields, including examinations of national and regional approaches, WTO disputes, and the interface between trade, environment and areas such as human rights, investment and development.

Featuring 107 entries divided into seven thematic parts, this volume is a landmark reference work which will prove invaluable to academics, students and researchers in international trade and environmental law, as well as public international law more broadly. It will also be a key resource for practitioners, policymakers and government officials working in any aspect of trade and environment.
Critical Acclaim
‘Tensions between sustainability goals and the international trading system have been percolating for years – and are now boiling over. For those seeking to understand the legal framework, specific issues, and case decisions behind this clash, Trade and Environmental Law offers an invaluable resource. Panagiotis Delimatsis and Leonie Reins have brought together an extraordinary collection of scholars and other thought leaders who illuminate the critical issues with detailed exploration of the relevant GATT rules, WTO negotiating practices, dispute settlement procedures, and conceptual foundations for trade as well as the competing vision of sustainable development and the global commitments to action on climate change and other critical environmental matters. A “must have” reference for scholars, lawyers, students, business leaders, environmental advocates, and trade practitioners.’
