Nations worldwide have made sustainable development a crucial objective, seeking to achieve a harmonious balance between economic growth, environmental preservation, and social justice. This book aims to examine the complex and dynamic domain of sustainable development law, offering a thorough examination of its concepts, policies, and implementation.
This resource will be invaluable for legal scholars, policymakers, practitioners, and students who wish to comprehend how legal frameworks can effectively promote sustainable development goals (SDGs). The notion gained momentum following the publication of the 1987 Brundtland Report, titled "Our Common Future," which defined sustainable development as the practice of satisfying the current needs while safeguarding the capacity of future generations to fulfill their own needs. The original concept has transformed into a comprehensive framework consisting of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that were officially accepted by the United Nations in 2015.
These goals are designed to tackle worldwide issues such as poverty, inequality, climate change, and environmental degradation. Given the growing evidence of climate change and environmental deterioration, the importance of law in promoting sustainable development is more crucial than ever. Legal frameworks are crucial for the implementation of programs that effectively reconcile conflicting interests, enforce stringent environmental standards, and advance principles of social justice. Sustainable development law involves various legal disciplines, such as environmental law, international trade law, human rights law, and economic law. This book seeks to offer a thorough analysis of sustainable development legislation by delving into its fundamental concepts, global and regional frameworks, domestic applications, and rising obstacles. The book will provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of how legal instruments can effectively support and promote sustainable development goals by connecting theoretical concepts with actual implementations.
