Descripción

In Nuclear Power and Human Rights in Japan: The Fallout of Fukushima, Emrah Akyuz advances an environmental human rights approach to environmental protections regarding nuclear power. Using the aftermath of the Fukushima disaster as a case study, Akyuz argues for three main approaches to environmental protection, including the right to environment, the reinterpretation of human rights, and the role of procedural rights.
