Pereira -- Bibliography /Ricardo M. Pereira -- Index /Ricardo M. Pereira.The drive for harmonisation of environmental criminal standards at both the international and European level emerges from the increasing recognition of the scale and seriousness of environmental crime, the need to strengthen mechanisms of police and judicial interstate cooperation to combat cross-border crime, and the objective to ensure fair competition in a global economy and an integrated EU common market. The harmonisation of environmental criminal law requires a competent institutional framework able to convey the need for criminalisation of environmental harm while not overriding national aspirations to sovereignty in criminal matters. The book Environmental Criminal Liability and Enforcement in European and International Law assesses legal, theoretical and practical questions of harmonisation of national environmental criminal law and the mechanisms for cooperation by sovereign states under European and International Law, with a particular emphasis on legislative developments in the European Union, the Council of Europe and other international institutions, assessing the case for an extension of the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court over international environmental crimes.Queen Mary studies in international law ;Volume 21.Offenses against the environmentLaw and legislationEuropean Union countriesOffenses against the environmentLaw and legislationOffenses against the environmentLaw and legislationOffenses against the environmentLaw and legislation.345/.0245Pereira Ricardo M(Law teacher),1123460MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910808550303321Environmental criminal liability and enforcement in European and international law3954933UNINA
