商品簡介
Legal scholars explore the nexus between sovereignty, land rights, and environmental protection and degradation in the context of laws that shape relations between the US government and Indian tribes. Among the topics are control and accountability as the twin dimensions of tribal sovereignty necessary to achieve environmental justice for native America, applying environmental justice to climate-related claims brought by Native nations, the promise and perils of renewable energy on tribal lands, consulting with Native peoples in protecting the Great Lakes, and lessons from the Inter-American Human Rights System on the role of Indigenous custom in environmental governance.
