This book provides an excellent overview of the legal issues
surrounding climate change mitigation and international trade law.
It surveys key observed and potential challenges posed by responses
to climate change in terms of international trade law. By examining
the controversial issues seen in legal cases in which domestic
climate change or renewable energy measures conflicted with
international trade regimes, this volume promotes and broadens the
understanding and debate of the issues. Beyond the recognized
challenges, this book uncovers potential areas of conflict between
climate change responses and international trade promotion by
exploring previous cases and current efforts to prevent climate
change. Furthermore, this volume sheds light on the future
direction of international trade law and climate change responses,
pointing out that the development of climate change or renewable
energy laws and policies must also consider international trade
regimes in order to ensure the smooth implementation of said laws
and policies and guarantee that international trade laws do not
restrict environmental policy space.
