* INTERSECTIONS NO. 4/2006 -
CREEPING INSTITUTIONALIZATION BY BHARAT DESAI

UNU-EHS is proud to present the new issue of InterSecTions, written by
Professor Dr. Bharat H. Desai. He gives an excellent and thought
provoking account of creeping institutionalization of the global
environmental governance. His story is not only proving that
environment is as much a legal as a security issue. It goes well
beyond the fields of his legal expertise as he analyses the creeping
institutionalization from the point of view of psychology of the state
actors. The reader can follow page by page how the growing
environmental awareness is being translated into multilateral actions,
treaties including the thickening web of Multilateral
Environmental Agreements(MEAs) and the softness of hard
law.
