This text meets the need for an accessible but analytical account of an increasingly important area of EC law and policy. Taking a thematic approach to the subject this book draws upon a variety of academic disciplines to help us to understand and contextualize the approach adopted by the European Community and the impact it is having in the member states. A critical, interdisciplinary approach is used to provide a broad conceptual framework and equip students and other readers with the analytical tools needed to understand and approach new ideas and developments in the field. *Adopts a broad thematic approach, rather than examining the subject by sector ( e.g. water, atmosphere). *Substantive law is covered in the context of issues and debates. *Explores tensions between economic and environmental objectives and the barriers to sustainable development. *Critical approach provides a broad conceptual framework.
