But what does it mean for a landscape to have rights? Why would anyone want to create such rights, and to what end? Is it a good idea, and does it come with risks? This book presents the logic behind giving nature rights and discusses the most important cases in which this has happened, ranging from constitutional rights of nature in Ecuador to rights for rivers in New Zealand, Colombia, and India. Mihnea Tanasescu offers clear answers to the thorny questions that the intrusion of nature into law is sure to raise. 517 $aUnderstanding the Rights of Nature 606 $aNatural resources$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aNatural resources$xLaw and legislation. 676 $a341.762 700 $aTanasescu$b Mihnea$0788132 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910547693603321 996 $aUnderstanding the Rights of Nature$93364461 997 $aUNINA
