The aim of this collection of work is to discuss the influence of environmental issues on ""mainstream"" and traditionally non-environmental legal subjects and social theories. The premise of the book is that environmental issues provide a distinct perspective on theories of law and society. Beyond this perspective, certain procedural, substantive and structural changes arise from trying to understand environmental problems and creating the legal tools to deal with them.

Contents:
Part 1 Moral and market boundaries: using environmental ethics to create ecological law, David Wilkinson; challenging the ethos of the European Union - a green perspective on European Union policies and programmes for rural development and the environment, David Wood.
Part 2 Nature and identity: capturing values for nature - ecological, economic and cultural perspectives, Carolyn Harrison et al; private country? hunting, land and judicial interventions, Davina Cooper; the legal construction and protection of landscape - the case of hedgerows, Jane Holder.
Part 3 Environmental justice: the grassroots at risk - local perceptions and environmental injustice, Angela Halfacre and Albert Matheny; environmental justice - the American experience and its possible application to the United Kingdom, Antonia Layard; save as you spend - consumer protection of the environmental and local social cohesion, Francoise Jarvis; common property and private trusts, Paul Kohler.
