Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Disputes, a book representing one of the first comprehensive analyses of ESG within the field of dispute resolution, serves as an essential resource for understanding the legal, procedural, and normative developments at the intersection of sustainability and adjudication, given that disputes touching on ESG concerns frequently cut across multiple areas of law and engage a diverse range of parties and causes of action. ESG has gained significant prominence in shaping the policy frameworks and procedural dynamics of contemporary dispute resolution.
