Description
Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) The EU as a Global Regulator for Environmental Protection: A Legitimacy Perspective by Ioanna Hadjiyianni
This book critically examines the extension of the scope of application of EU environmental legislation beyond EU borders by conditioning access to the EU market on the basis of processes that take place in third countries. The author identifies and explains the emerging legal phenomenon of internal environmental measures with extraterritorial implications as important manifestations of EU global regulatory power. The book assesses the extraterritorial reach of EU environmental law from a legitimacy perspective and examines mechanisms that can bolster its legitimacy.
