Development of Environmental Laws in India

By Manju Menon and Kanchi Kohli

Book Overview

This book highlights the dynamic nature of environmental law-making in India between the judiciary, executive and parliamentary structures. This has led to the creation of a wide range of environmental institutions and bodies with varied roles. It contains a large volume of materials from the late 1990s which shows a marked shift in the nature of environmental governance in India. These materials introduce the readers to contemporary debates in environment law within the context of India's economic liberalisation. The materials are thematically organized and presented in an accessible manner. The chapters contain definitions and specific clauses from the legal instruments as well as many recent court orders and judgements.
