This book focuses on how public and private international law address civil liability for transboundary pollution. Both respond to transboundary pollution in different ways, yet their connections are poorly understood. Filling that gap, this book engages in a meaningful dialogue between the two areas. Beginning with a thorough investigation of liability in international environmental law, it then goes on to identify preferable rules of civil jurisdiction, foreign judgments and choice of law for environmental damage. Taking a comparative approach, it explores the question from the perspectives of both Canadian and European private international law. This is a contentious issue of the law, both in scholarship and practice, so international lawyers both private and public as well as environmental lawyers will welcome this important work.
