A Global Perspective
This publication, part of the UIA-LexisNexis series, provides a global and practical perspective on one of the defining challenges of the twenty-first century: the protection of wildlife and biodiversity. Bringing together leading practitioners and experts from multiple jurisdictions, it examines the laws, treaties, and policy frameworks shaping wildlife conservation, human-wildlife interactions, and international trade.
Through comparative country and regional analyses, the book explores how legal systems are responding to pressing issues such as biodiversity loss, illegal wildlife trafficking, human-wildlife conflict, habitat loss, climate change, and emerging sustainability challenges. By combining legal insight with broader environmental, economic, and societal perspectives, this collective work offers valuable guidance to lawyers, policymakers, academics, businesses, and other stakeholders and community members seeking to understand the evolving role of wildlife law in addressing global environmental crises and promoting a more sustainable future.
