Who's Afraid Of The Precautionary Principle?, Robert V. Percival
Robert Percival
The precautionary principle – the notion that lack of scientific certainty should not foreclose precautionary regulation – has become enormously popular in recent years, as reflected by its endorsement in many important international declarations and agreements. Despite its growing influence, the precautionary principle recently has come under fire by critics who argue that it is incoherent, potentially paralyzing, and that it will lead regulators to make bad choices.

El Surgimiento Del Derecho Ambiental Global, Robert V. Percival
