The Chernobyl disaster is an example of an activity conducted by one state which has caused serious adverse effects in another. This study of the international rules and procedure for compensation for victims will be of use to academics and professionals involved with transboundary disputes.
The Chernobyl disaster, the Amoco Cadiz oil spill and the Colorado River dispute are examples of an activity conducted by one state which has serious adverse effects in the territory of another, or in global common areas. This book details the international rules and compensation procedures and is intended for use by governmental officials, international lawyers and jurists. It discusses existing laws on international liability and considers the underlying legal issues that require further development. It is one of the few books on the subject written from the perspective of a developing country with rapid economic and social development.
