Book Synopsis Mountains and the Law by : Annie Villeneuve
Download or read book Mountains and the Law written by Annie Villeneuve. This book was released on 2002. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most countries have not yet adopted mountain-specific laws, preferring to protect mountains through existing sectoral legislation. However, countries such as France, Georgia, Italy, Russian Federation (North Ossetia-Alania), Switzerland and Ukraine, have enacted legal instruments dealing specifically with mountains, and other countries are developing similar legislation. This publication broadly describes the main elements of international and national mountain-specific legal texts, and also includes national case studies.
