Closely examining the fight for survival undertaken by low-lying Pacific Island States, the author engages with the legal and policy innovations necessary to address these new scenarios. This monograph reacts against overly formal approaches to the law on statehood, and is devoted to the reconstruction of the context in which both the challenges, and the measures adopted to tackle them, are taking place. Progressively forged within the international community, it is the kind of political and ethical framework that will soon inform the potential transformation of the law on statehood. 410 0$aLegal aspects of sustainable development ;$vvolume 22. 606 $aGlobal warming$xLaw and legislation 606 $aSea level$xSocial aspects$zIslands of the Pacific 606 $aCoast changes$xSocial aspects$zIslands of the Pacific 607 $aIslands of the Pacific$xInternational status 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGlobal warming$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aSea level$xSocial aspects 615 0$aCoast changes$xSocial aspects 676 $a341.26 700 $aTorres Camprubi?$b Alejandra$0967480 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465729203321 996 $aStatehood under water$92196526 997 $aUNINA
