Global Commons Management and Goverence

The term "Global Commons" has usually referred to those parts of international space that are beyond national jurisdiction: the seabed, the troposphere, stratosphere and near outer space and arguably, Antarctica. Common pool resources present some of the most intellectually interesting and practically demanding resource management problems in the world today. This book provides a clear, useful introduction to the subject that will be of interest to general readers as well as to students in International Relations, and International Environmental Law and in Environmental Law and Policy generally. It will serve as a reference book on the said subject and tends to acquaint readers with both in-depth and extensive knowledge of the subject concerned.
