Radioactive Waste Disposal at Sea: Public Ideas ... - IMO

Series Foreword
A new recognition of profound interconnections between social and natural
systems is challenging conventional constructs and the policy predispositions
informed by them. Our current intellectual challenge is to develop the
analytical and theoretical underpinnings of an understanding of the relationship
between the social and the natural systems. Our policy challenge
is to identify and implement effective decision-making approaches to managing
the global environment.
The series on Global Environmental Accord adopts an integrated perspective
on national, international, cross-border, and cross-jurisdictional
problems, priorities, and purposes. It examines the sources and the consequences
of social transactions as these relate to environmental conditions
and concerns. Our goal is to make a contribution to both intellectual and
policy endeavors.
