1 ECOLOGICAL GOVERNANCE Ecological degradation has been an object of concern for the international community since the early 1970s, but legal approaches that have been employed to improve the protection of ecosystems have failed to halt this decline. Ecological Governance explores how the law should respond to this rapid global deterioration of ecosystems by examining the foundational scientific and ethical considerations for designing laws that are effective for ecological protection. Based on these analyses, it argues that developed states should prioritise the reduction of the ecological stresses for which they are responsible in decision-making on their future courses. The book also proposes structures for governance and associated legal frameworks that would enable the formulation and implementation of policies for ecological sustainability. olivia woolley is a lecturer in the School of Law at the University of Aberdeen. In her research, she explores how law can be used more effectively to protect ecosystem functionality, particularly by enhancing the sustainability of developed states.

9 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe a debt of gratitude to several persons for their support and assistance during the time I spent both undertaking research at University College London for my doctoral thesis (on which the book is based) and working on this book whilst employed as a lecturer in Law at the University of Aberdeen. I am deeply indebted to Professor Jane Holder and Professor Maria Lee, both of the Faculty of Laws of University College London, for their excellent supervision of my research and for their astute comments on countless draft chapters of my thesis. I thank Professor Joanne Scott of University College London, Professor Catherine Redgwell (then of University College London, now of the University of Oxford) and Professor William Howarth of the University of Kent for their helpful feedback on my work at crucial points during my research. I am most grateful to Professor Laurence Gormley of the Faculty of Law of the University of Groningen for introducing me to Cambridge University Press. Thank you also to Professor Gormley and to Professor Jeanne Mifsud Bonnici, also of the University of Groningen, for their helpful comments on my book proposal. In addition, I am obliged to Anne-Michelle Slater, Head of the School of Law at the University of Aberdeen, and to many of my colleagues at Aberdeen for lightening my workload during the second half of 2013 so that I could concentrate on writing the book. I thank everyone with whom I worked at Cambridge University Press for their enthusiasm for the project, and for their help with preparing the book for publication. I am grateful to Sinéad Moloney for her interest in my book proposal and for commissioning reports on this. Thank you also to the two anonymous reviewers of the proposal for their positive reviews, constructive comments and helpful suggestions on further areas and literature that I should explore. I owe much to the research student community at University College London for their friendship and support during the time I spent working on my thesis. Thanks in particular must go to Rebecca Smith, who spent many evenings listening patiently as I tested my ideas out on her. Finally, I thank my mother. This book would not have seen the light of day without her support, always unquestioningly given, for my endeavours. ix
