Law 271: Environmental Law and Policy - Lecture 1BackWhat is Environmental Law? Insights from Ecology and Economics Instructor Holly Doremus. This introductory course is designed to explore fundamental legal and policy issues in environmental law. Through examination of environmental common law and key federal environmental statutes, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Clean Air Act, and Clean Water Act, it exposes students to the major challenges to environmental law and the principal approaches to meeting those challenges, including litigation, command and control regulation, technology forcing, market incentives, and information disclosure requirements. With the addition of cross-cutting topics such as risk assessment and environmental federalism, it also gives students a grounding in how choices about regulatory standards and levels of regulatory authority are made. http://www.law.berkeley.edu/students/curricularprograms/envirolaw/index.html Category: Education Uploaded: June 16th, 2008 @ 9:54 pm Author: UCBerkeley Length: 15:01 Rating: Views: Tags: ucberkeley course environmental law boalt yt:quality=high Related Video Links:» View Video Comments For Law 271: Environmental Law and Policy - Lecture 1 » View UCBerkeley's Other Uploaded Videos Video Thumbnails:Video Embedding Code:* Embed this video on your website, social bookmark, myspace, or blog. |
