Global Justice and Sustainable Development
Global Justice and Sustainable Development
It is widely accepted that the current international legal framework on sustainable development has, at its core, an innate belief in justice, both instrumentally as the normative outcome of the general application of law and, more specifically, as the attainment of fairness within and between generations.
The Two-day research seminar (26 - 27th August 2009 Sheffield, UK), formally designated a working session of the International Law Association Committee on International Law on Sustainable Development, is open to all individuals interested in the issues. Research students are actively encouraged to participate.
30 papers will be presented over the course of the two day seminars in 10 sessions covering topics including:
Climate Change and Sustainable Development
International Trade and Investment
International Environmental Law
Stakeholders and Participation
National and Regional Approaches
Global Justice and Water Resources
Disparate Challenges
Inchoate solutions in a Globalised World
Realigning Economic Justice
