The Polluter-Pays, User-Pays and Precautionary principles are increasingly being used as guidelines for environmental policy, and yet their developmental implications have barely been explored.\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFair Principles for Sustainable Development\u003c\/i\u003e is one of the first books to study the developmental implications of these basic tenets of environmental policy.  Having assessed the merits, drawbacks and technical feasibility for developing countries of applying the Polluter-Pays and User-Pays principles, the contributors then examine the Precautionary principle from the same perspective.  This is followed by discussion of Subsidiarity, which offers guidance on the application of these principles and aims to ensure that local interests are articulated and incorporated in the decision-making process.  Finally an overview by the editor draws the material together to support the application of these principles, particularly in international trade and global environmental agreements, to serve the sustainable development in the Third World.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an important early contribution to the debate on the application of Polluter-Pays, User-Pays and Precautionary principles in development policy, as well as one of the first books to discuss the application of the subsidiarity principle to environmental policy, \u003ci\u003eFair Principles for Sustainable Development\u003c\/i\u003e will be welcomed by researchers, students and policymakers attempting to come to terms with a new, important, but little understood, area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53567281234294,"sku":"9781852789121","price":142.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_13056189_19684816_20241209054718.jpg?v=1733773212","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781852789121-fair-principles-for-sustainable-developm","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
