Anotace -
The course provides a comprehensive overview of the legal regulation of environmental protection at the EU and Czech national levels. It starts with a description of the state of the environment and explanation of the concept of environmental policy. It further continues with general issues such as the relationship between the EU law and national laws of Member States and the role of law as a tool of environmental policy. It pays attention to certain cross-cutting issues (such as liability in environmental protection, institutional safeguards, public participation, role of courts) before dealing with specific topics such as land-use planning, environmental impact assessment, protection of individual components of the environment (air, water, land, forests, nature) and regulation of specific sources of endangerment of the environment and human health (waste, industrial accidents). The final exam is composed of a written test based on the knowledge transmitted during the course and a group presentation (2-4 students from at least two different countries) on a topic chosen from a list proposed by lecturers.
