Book Review Jacqueline PEEL, The Oxford Handbook Of International Environmental Law, Lavanya Rajamani, Oxford University Press (2021)
Résumé
Does IEL fit for the purpose?
To answer this question, the 2nd edition of the Oxford Handbook of International Environmental Law
offers a remarkable panorama of analyses "providing durable analysis to assist reader in navigating and
reflecting on the field", as was the ambition of the editors, Lavanya Rajamani and Jacqueline Peel,
pioneering international law scholars and practitioners/advisors in the service of the environmental
cause. In 2007, the first edition of this book, edited by Daniel Bodansky, Jutta Brunée and Ellen Hey,
mapped this relatively new field. More than a decade later, the subject matter has expanded
considerably, "IEL has acquired further breadth, depth, nuance, complexity, and reach in the last
decade" (Rajamani & Peel, p. 2). In a context of profoundly altered international relations (China's role
in multilateralism, growing inequalities, difficult convergence of European Union member states,
Chapter 37 by S. Maljean-Dubois), the second edition captures the rapid changes and ongoing maturing
that characterize the field and provides keys to understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the field,
due to causes intrinsic to the subject (Chapter 18 Precaution by J. Peel, Chapter 21 Public participation
by J. Ebbeson, Chapter non-compliance mechanism) and to extrinsic causes (non-environmental
regimes, Chapter 15 The Role of Science S. Johnston / Chapter 41 Business and Industry by B.
Richardson & B. Sjafjell for ex.).
