FYI. There appears to be full access, at least for the purpose of previewing chapters. I’ve had an opportunity to read a number of chapters already; it appears to be a an important contribution to the literature. wil

Edited by Erkki J. Hollo, Kati Kulovesi and Michael Mehling. The table of contents can be found below. Climate Change and the Law explores the rich diversity of international, regional, national, sub-national and transnational legal responses to climate change. Is climate law emerging as a new legal discipline? If so, what shared objectives and concepts define it? How does climate law relate to other areas of law? Such questions lie at the heart of this new book, whose thirty chapters cover doctrinal questions as well as a range of thematic and regional case studies. As Christiana Figueres, Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), states in her preface, these chapters collectively provide a “review of the emergence of a new discipline, its core principles and legal techniques, and its relationship and potential interaction with other disciplines."
