Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本書考察了貿易，人權以及自然資源法下環境之間的複雜關係。作者在探索在發達國家和發展中國家管理自然資源的概念和方法的同時，又討論了其所採用的關鍵理論和其所面臨的挑戰。本書的最初是為法律專業本科生和研究生而編寫，因此書中編入了練習題，問題，有關全球化或者自然資源法的討論主題，以及大量參考書目。縱觀本書，無論是對於專業學者，研究員，還是業餘愛好者，這都將是一本價值非常高的參考書。（from XMM）

Awards/获奖情况：‘This book is a very welcome addition to publications on globalisation and natural resources management. It adopts a very broad approach to this important subject – it includes the general issues, such as trade and investment. It deals with very complex questions of permanent sovereignty over natural resources; the right to development; the role of indigenous peoples in resource management. This publication also provides the reader with general underlying principles and approaches to natural resources management, such as sustainable use; the precautionary principle; the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and the ecosystem approach, regulatory approach etc. The book is very analytical and gives a lot of food for thought for readers.’– Malgosia Fitzmaurice, Queen Mary, University of London, UK

‘The book is the first of its kind to deal in depth with complex, cross-cutting issues relating to globalization and natural resources. The authors demonstrate not only a broad range of knowledge but also provides deep insights into what will be needed to make the transition from economic globalization to sustainable globalization, including improved resource efficiency and sustainable development, and inclusive and participatory governance. In particular, the authors consider specific approaches in such sectors as water resources, renewable energy, and biological resources. The book has carefully documented and analyzed numerous international, regional, and national legal frameworks as well as relevant theories and principles. It is a must for every law library as well as for policy makers, administrators, academics, non-governmental bodies, and civil societies. We owe a great debt to the authors for their painstaking, comprehensive research.’– Koh Kheng-Lian, National University of Singapore

‘Globalization as a means of aptly capturing political, social, cultural, and above all else economic phenomena has been well-documented and the subject of a multitude of comment. What has perhaps been less well studied is its relationship with natural resource management. Thus this work by Merino-Blanco and Razzaque is to be commended. Moreover, by focusing on globalization, an important truth is revealed. It is neither about the diminution of the role of the State nor the ascendancy of the multinational corporation, but rather a more nuanced and complex interaction, which we are only beginning to appreciate. This book is an important contribution to that debate.’– Duncan French, University of Sheffield, UK
