Greening the Civil Codes: Comparative Private Law and Environmental Protection
Author: Sabrina Lanni
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000877418
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
This book examines the greening of civil codes from a comparative perspective. It takes into account the increasing requirements of supranational rules, which favour measures to reduce global warming and its negative environmental impacts; it discusses the necessity to expand distributive justice given the current ecological emergency; and it reflects on which private law legal tools potentially may be employed to defend nature’s interests. The work fills a gap in the growing literature on developing rights of nature and ecosystem in transnational law. While the focus is on the environmental issues pertaining to the new civil codes and new projects of civil codes, the book promotes interdisciplinary research applicable to a range of environmental and natural resources–focused courses across the social sciences, especially those related to comparative law systems, legal anthropology, legal traditions in the world, political science and international relations.

Book Description
FIDIC contracts are the most widely used contracts for international construction around the world and are used in many different jurisdictions, both common law and civil law.

Routledge Handbook of Private Law and Sustainability
Author: Marta Santos Silva
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040037437
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 693
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of Private Law and Sustainability reflects on how the law can help tackle the current environmental challenges and make our societies more resilient to future crises. Sustainability has been high on the political agenda since the approval of the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015 and the EU Green Deal in 2019. The Green Agenda aims at making Europe the first climate‐neutral continent by 2050, but humanity persists in an ecological overshoot that puts at risk the survival of species, including that of our own. Drawing together a selection of leading thinkers in the field, this Handbook provides a curated overview of the most recent and relevant discussions for private lawyers related to environmental and sustainability concerns. The authors delve into case study examples from 20 countries in Europe and beyond and discuss a wide range of issues, including new property law and consumer law paradigms, the use of legal tech for promoting sustainable property management, strategies for fighting planned obsolescence, eco‐design, the servitisation economy, advances on corporate climate litigation and mandated green private sludges. Overall, the volume is designed to empower new generations of legal scholars to take an active role in the transition to a more sustainable future. It will also assist policymakers in producing better policy, through pinpointing the main legal issues that need to be addressed and offering a comparative overview of legal solutions and best practices. Divided into six key parts and overseen by a team of internationally recognised expert editors, this Handbook will be an essential resource for students, scholars, private lawyers and policymakers who wish to have a comprehensive, fundamental overview of how environmental sustainability concerns reflect on private law.

La contabilidad financiera ambiental
Author: Arístides Pelegrín Mesa, María Luz Ortíz Paniagua
Publisher: Editorial Universitaria | Libros UDG
ISBN: 6074509441
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 75
Book Description
En la actualidad, la conservación del ambiente es un tema de relevancia a nivel mundial, por la repercusión que tiene en las estrategias de desarrollo y de competitividad, así como en la propia dinámica de los países tendientes a buscar los añorados patrones de sostenibilidad. La contabilidad es un área que ha tenido un desarrollo vertiginoso en los últimos años, motivado por los profundos cambios y la dinámica de los entornos empresariales que han reconfigurado los patrones de comportamiento de este campo. Sin embargo, no ha perdido su esencia, manteniendo su carácter normativo bajo condiciones de relevancia, transparencia y fiabilidad de los hechos económicos. Día con día, en los círculos académicos, es más latente el interés por proporcionarle a esta área del conocimiento funciones para establecer patrones de acción y comportamiento para mejorar la situación ambiental de las empresas. Es por ello que ha surgido un área que por su importancia ha motivado a académicos, empresarios e investigadores, y que está destinada precisamente a cubrir expectativas de información teniendo como base la racionalidad de recursos: la contabilidad financiera ambiental. La presente obra está dedicada a abordar, desde una perspectiva teórica, algunas experiencias que se han obtenido, tanto en México como en Cuba, con el consenso de que sin duda el camino hacia la normatividad contable ambiental es aún incipiente.
