Regulation, Enforcement and Governance in Environmental Law is an
updated edition of Richard Macrory's most influential writings. Spanning
his entire career, these are all works which have helped shape
contemporary environmental law and policy. The book includes the full
text of his 2006 Cabinet Office Review on Regulatory Sanctions, new
chapters on the Climate Change Act 2008, the Environment Tribunal, and
analysis of recent leading cases. The book is divided into six thematic
sections: Regulatory reform, Institutional Reform and Change, Dynamics
of Environmental Law, Courts and the Environment, Europe and the
Environment, and Supra-national enforcement of environmental law.
Reviews of the first edition: "This book is surely destined to become a
'must read' for anyone (academic, practitioner or student) interested in
the development of regulation, enforcement, and environmental
governance." P Bishop, IUCN Academy of Environmental Law Journal "An
excellent reference work on environmental law...an extremely important
and valuable edition to the environmental lawyer's bookshelf. C Abbot,
Journal of Environmental Law "It is a rare to find a volume which
consumes one's attention for 765 pages - and rarer still that such a
blockbuster be a law book...This book is not solely for environmental
enthusiasts - it should be essential reading for anyone concerned with
the institutional reform, transparency and accountability in the UK and
EU.
