Theoretical Framework -- Propagation: The Aarhus Convention's International Context -- Germination: The Aarhus Convention's Procedural Trinity -- Growth: The Aarhus Convention's Organisational Infrastructure |
| Summary |
"This book explores the Aarhus Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making, and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters. It firstly considers Aarhus' propagation, investigating the legal, diplomatic, and geopolitical contexts enabling its emergence. It secondly investigates Aarhus' germination, with reference to its trinity of procedural rights. Thirdly, the book examines the Convention's growth, in terms of the development of its organisational infrastructure. The chief finding is that Aarhus demonstrates, in environmental contexts, the feasibility and benefit of fostering 'humankind' solidarist progress, rooted in moral cosmopolitanism, within the existing power arrangements of a sovereignty-based pluralism. Pluralist concerns for diversity and international order are found to be a precondition for more ethically ambitious solidarist endeavours. These observations reinforce the logic of solidarisation, an English School innovation that presents sovereignty as (a) being ethically matured by solidarism whilst (b) delimiting solidarism within the threshold of states' tolerance"--Publisher |
