This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’utilisation et la gestion de l’énergie nucléaire sont des sujets sensibles. Chaque accident nucléaire majeur qui se produit soulève de nombreuses et nouvelles interrogations sur les risques radioactifs pour l’environnement et la biodiversité, et l’impact des radionucléides sur les êtres vivants et la santé. S’inscrivant au cœur du débat public, Le risque radioactif propose une synthèse complète des connaissances actuelles sur les principaux polluants radioactifs de l’environnement (uranium, transuraniens, isotopes radioactifs du césium, du strontium, de l’iode, du tritium, du carbone et de divers métaux de transition…), leur comportement et leur devenir dans les divers compartiments physiques des milieux et au sein des organismes vivants, dont l’homme. Il présente de façon claire et raisonnée : - les fondements de la physique et de la chimie nucléaires ainsi que leurs applications dans différents domaines (militaire, énergie, médecine, industrie…). Il aborde également les notions à connaître d’écologie et de génétique, et rappelle les origines anthropiques des radionucléides dans l’environnement ; - les grands principes de la radioécologie, discipline consacrée à l’étude des radionucléides, le comportement de ces derniers dans l’environnement (atmosphère, hydrosphère et lithosphère), leur mode de contamination et leur effet néfaste sur les organismes non humains ; - les principaux risques radioactifs pour l’homme (exposition, imprégnation), les mécanismes de contamination et leurs conséquences sur la santé (effets des irradiations) ; - les principaux inconvénients de l’utilisation de l’énergie nucléaire que sont les déchets radioactifs et leur gestion, et les accidents nucléaires et leur impact. Véritable ouvrage de référence multidisciplinaire, Le risque radioactif s’adresse aux ingénieurs, techniciens et industriels concernés par l’évaluation, la prévention et la gestion des risques radioactifs, aux responsables « environnement » des entreprises et collectivités ainsi qu’aux autorités de sûreté nucléaire. Il sera également utile aux enseignants et étudiants de troisième cycle ainsi qu’à toute personne souhaitant mieux comprendre le risque radioactif.

This book was released on 2010-05-12 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En droit international de l’investissement, le prisme de l’expropriation indirecte couvre une large catégorie de mesures – telles que les réglementations – qui n’impliquent pas de transfert de propriété mais aboutissent à une grave interférence avec un investissement. La définition des dépossessions indemnisables constitue une question extrêmement sensible, située à la croisée des chemins entre la protection des droits des investisseurs et la préservation des prérogatives de l’Etat. Cet ouvrage explore, à travers l’exemple de la réglementation environnementale, le droit applicable à cette notion controversée. Il montre que l’approche traditionnelle – reposant sur une dilution du concept d’expropriation – n’est nullement appropriée et il contribue à clarifier l’étendue de la protection de l’investisseur sur le fondement du droit de la responsabilité internationale de l’Etat. In international investment law, the prism of indirect expropriation includes a broad range of measures – such as regulatory measures – which do not involve a transfer of property but result in a serious interference with an investment. The definition of compensable taking is a very sensitive issue situated at the crossroads between the protection of investors' private rights and the safeguarding of the state's sovereign prerogatives. This book explores, through the example of environmental regulation, the law applicable to this controversial topic. It suggests that the traditional approach – based on an extension of the concept of expropriation – is inappropriate and it contributes to clarifying the scope of the international protection of the investor on the ground of the law of state responsibility.

Download or read book The Evolution of EU Law written by Paul P. Craig and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1999 with total page 952 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Community has been in existence for forty years. This period has seen considerable change and development in both the institutional and the substantive law of the EC -- and more recently the EU. Numerous works on EC law have been published over the years, ranging from textbooks, to specialist monographs, to collections of essays on particular aspects of Community jurisprudence. This, however, is the first work which seeks to stand back from the ever-growing detail of Community law, and examine this jurisprudence from an evolutionary and interdisciplinary perspective. Every important area of institutional and substantive European law is covered -- leading lawyers analyse the evolution of their area of expertise across time, bringing out the major thematic changes which have occurred.These changes are then viewed against the broader political and economic background of the Community as a whole. This book will give readers a clearer understanding of the overalllegal picture, and will also allow them to gain a richer perspective on the interaction between law and other forces which have shaped the Community and made it what it is today.
