‘Tensions between sustainability goals and the international trading system have been percolating for years – and are now boiling over. For those seeking to understand the legal framework, specific issues, and case decisions behind this clash, Trade and Environmental Law offers an invaluable resource. Panagiotis Delimatsis and Leonie Reins have brought together an extraordinary collection of scholars and other thought leaders who illuminate the critical issues with detailed exploration of the relevant GATT rules, WTO negotiating practices, dispute settlement procedures, and conceptual foundations for trade as well as the competing vision of sustainable development and the global commitments to action on climate change and other critical environmental matters. A “must have” reference for scholars, lawyers, students, business leaders, environmental advocates, and trade practitioners.’
