Toward A Sustainable Whaling Regime [Hardcover]

This text considers how to develop an international environmental regime that represents a consensus of most world peoples so that its rules will be obeyed; which allows for sufficient variance from universal norms so as not to disadvantage indigenous peoples and other small-holders; which illustrates how to properly use science to provide the basis of a sustainable whaling regime; and which demonstrates sufficient civility in negotiation to promote co-operation on other, perhaps more important, environmental issues.
