Summary

Environmental Law and Local Government in South Africa is the first work of its kind to extensively analyse South African environmental law and policy for local government. This novel collection of theoretical scholarship and real-life examples presents different features of the interface between local government and environmental law. Each chapter is accessible yet detailed enough to be useful. In the scope of this comprehensive work, thirty-two authors collectively answer the question: 'What is the role of local government in moving South Africa towards a sustainable future, considering the dictates and scope of environmental law?'.
