Beskrivning
The field of disaster law has witnessed a huge surge in interest over the past few years. Building widespread recognition of the shortcomings of legal systems faced with disasters, academics have increasingly turned their attention to exploring how these failings can be addressed. This volume is a carefully selected collection of essays which focus on the legal and economic aspects of disaster law and pays particular attention to the legalities of catastrophes. The editors have brought together seminal papers analysing how disasters, both natural and man-made, could be prevented and investigating the ways in which compensation for such events could be provided.This set of indispensable papers examines such issues through a variety of analytical lenses and provides a solid foundation for future developments in this dynamic and highly topical subject.

Recensioner i media

‘Disaster Law is a compilation of seminal articles that explore the economic and policy issues that must be addressed by the law and by lawmakers grappling with the problem of disasters. . . This book provides a collection of some of the most noteworthy contributions to this field. The editors, Dan Farber and Michael Faure, seek to help us think more about what the law should be than about what it actually is. . . The pressure for reform of disaster law is growing. . . We can only hope that the policy debate to come will be informed by the understanding provided by reference works such as disaster law.’
