The economic advantages gained from the development of oil and gas are the basis for the economic and social development of the riparian states, but also cause significant transboundary harm to the ecosystem of the Caspian Sea. The book contends that, if the local environment grows more heavily contaminated through the extraction of mineral resources, it could lead to environmentally induced violence. It describes the ongoing conflicts, which are primarily due to various riparian states’ territorial claims concerning the extraction of oil and gas resources, and argues that the current legal framework on the use and protection of the Caspian Sea is obsolete. Thus, the main objective of the book is to point out corresponding international legal mechanisms that could be used in order to settle these disputes and protect the Caspian Sea’s fragile environment from transboundary harm.Law of the seaInternational lawInternational environmental lawEnergy policyEnergy and stateEnvironmental lawEnvironmental policyEnvironmental economicsEnvironmental managementLaw of the Sea, Air and Outer Spacehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19060International Environmental Lawhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19070Energy Policy, Economics and Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000Environmental Law/Policy/Ecojusticehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U16002Environmental Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48000Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/215000Law of the sea.International law.International environmental law.Energy policy.Energy and state.Environmental law.Environmental policy.Environmental economics.Environmental management.Law of the Sea, Air and Outer Space.International Environmental Law.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.Environmental Law/Policy/Ecojustice.Environmental Economics.Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Management.333.7333.79338926340Janusz-Pawletta Barbaraauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut921258BOOK9910484029703321The Legal Status of the Caspian Sea2066356UNINA
