Shared Responsibility for Multiple International Persons' Contribution to a Refoulement

This book&nbsp;examines how climate change significantly impacts the public interest of national states, affecting a wide range of human rights, economic activities, development projects, and security.&nbsp;This book&nbsp;highlights the complexity of the legal discipline of climate change, which is a polycentric phenomenon because its causes and possible responses are subject to various decision-making levels and are cumulative over time. Additionally,&nbsp;this book&nbsp;addresses the need for norm creation in a scenario of risk and scientific uncertainty, as well as the socio-political conflicts generated.

Given these factors,&nbsp;this book&nbsp;emphasizes the role of national states in the legal regulation of climate change, as, although it is a global problem, they are the ones who set emission reduction targets and regulate the behavior of individuals and corporations to achieve them. In recent years, various climate laws have been created or amended in several countries, indicating a push for juridification around the issue.

Considering this context,&nbsp;this book&nbsp;argues that the legal discipline of climate change in Brazilian law requires the legislative structuring of a national policy compatible with the constitutional foundations and international commitments undertaken by Brazil, capable of dealing with the problem in a crosscutting manner and covering various economic sectors.&nbsp;This book&nbsp;analyzes the bases for formulating this climate policy, consisting of the foundations that should underpin it.

Firstly,&nbsp;this book&nbsp;highlights that the justice aspects involved are relevant to guide the definitions of the distribution of the impacts of climate change and the measures to mitigate them. Secondly,&nbsp;this book&nbsp;addresses the protection of fundamental rights to which the state is bound, creating a duty for it to structure measures to make them effective - including regulating the behavior of individuals and corporations - and enabling judicial control in the event of violations of these duties. Lastly,&nbsp;this book&nbsp;emphasizes that the principles of environmental law must underpin the instruments of a climate policy and the interpretation of its rules.

An ESG Approach to Legal Recognition

Legal Personhood in the Anthropocene

Gerhard van der Schyff

Concepts, Arrangements and Themes

The Constitutional Identity of The Netherlands

SpringerBriefs in Law

Claims to legal personhood have expanded dramatically beyond traditional boundaries to encompass rivers, future generations, and potentially artificial intelligence and animals. Yet many such initiatives fail, collapsing into symbolic gestures without practical effect. This book argues that these failures stem not only from fragmented approaches that privilege one dimension—environmental protection, governance efficiency, or social equity—while neglecting others, but also from treating legal personhood itself as a solution rather than as a regulatory tool requiring careful institutional design. Corporate personhood evolved alongside increasingly sophisticated governance structures that often externalised environmental and social costs. Environmental personhood emerged from ecological imperatives but frequently faltered due to weak governance structures and contested legitimacy, as illustrated by the contrast between New Zealand’s comparatively robust Whanganui River framework (comprehensive governance, dedicated funding, and integration of tikanga M¿ori) and India’s subsequently stayed river-personhood orders (minimal resources, unclear authority, and exclusionary framing). The book develops an integrated Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework establishing three interlocking criteria: environmental integrity, social equity, and governance feasibility. These function not as independent variables but as mutually constitutive requirements—environmental objectives require governance mechanisms and social legitimacy; governance arrangements require environmental purpose and social legitimation; social acceptance depends on environmental outcomes and governance processes. Through comparative analysis across multiple jurisdictions, the book shows how ESG can evaluate personhood regimes and, crucially, serve as a pre-recognition diagnostic for determining when governance should proceed through alternative legal architectures rather than through the creation of new legal persons. In doing so, it reframes personhood as an instrument of institutional design rather than a metaphysical status, offering practical guidance for judges, legislators, advocates, and administrators addressing environmental crisis, technological change, and evolving governance demands in the Anthropocene.

Völkerrecht als Prüfungsmaßstab für Sekundärrechtsakte der Union

&lt;p&gt;This book explores how Europe can resolve its foreign fighter conundrum without losing its credibility as a guardian of the rule of law and human rights. Centring on European foreign fighters who travelled to the armed conflict in Syria and Iraq, this book examines to which extent legal responses to the security threat posed by foreign fighters have been consistent with the rule of law and human rights.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The transnational nature of the foreign fighter phenomenon has created a messy labyrinth of legal obligations at the international, European, and domestic levels. To dissect this multi-layered counter-terrorism architecture, the book analyses the intricate interplay between legal norms at these different levels, with a special focus on prosecution and citizenship deprivation. Pertinent issues discussed in this book include multilateral responses by the United Nations, the European Union, and the Council of Europe, as well as the interplay between the ‘foreign terrorist fighter’ concept and definitions of terrorism. The book also addresses the conflation between counter-terrorism law and international humanitarian law, and the increasing preventive shift within counter-terrorism law.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Drawing on insights from various fields of law, the book's comprehensive and thorough assessment of the rule of law and human rights implications of permanent international, regional, and domestic legal measures to foreign fighters offers best practices for managing future terrorist threats and challenges. It is an essential resource for both researchers and practitioners in the field of counter-terrorism, national and international security, and international law.&lt;/p&gt;
