Beschreibung

Marine Pollution Controls explores the intricate legal structures created to defend our oceans from the harm of pollution, addressing the critical question of whether current measures are sufficient to prevent irreversible damage to marine ecosystems. The book highlights the fact that oceans play a vital role in regulating climate and supporting global biodiversity, further emphasizing the urgency of effective pollution controls.

 
It dives into international maritime law, examining conventions like MARPOL and UNCLOS, while also scrutinizing national enforcement frameworks. The book progresses by first tracing the history of international maritime law, then centers on vessel-source pollution, responses to accidental pollution such as oil spills, and the regulation of dumping at sea.

 
A key insight is the disparity between the legal ideals of international conventions and the practical challenges of enforcement, particularly on the high seas.

 
Ultimately, this comprehensive analysis offers valuable insights for policymakers, legal scholars, and environmental advocates interested in strengthening marine environmental policy and law.

    The Swedish Famine of 1867-1869...

    In the years leading up to the Swedish Famine of 1867–1869, the Kingdom of Sweden stood at a crossroads between tradition and transformation. The mid-19th century was a period of great change, with emerging industrialization in urban areas clashing with the deep-rooted agrarian lifestyle that still defined the countryside. A vast majority of Swedes lived in rural regions, relying heavily on subsistence farming and small-scale agriculture. This dependence on crop yields, particularly barley, rye, and potatoes, made the rural population extremely vulnerable to climatic changes and poor harvests. 
    Despite some gradual modernization efforts, Sweden’s agricultural systems remained underdeveloped and highly sensitive to weather conditions. Farming techniques were largely traditional, and the infrastructure for food storage and distribution was limited. There was little to cushion communities in the event of failed crops. In a nation where most people lived off what they could grow or trade locally, a single bad season could spell hardship. Several parts of the country had endured minor food shortages in prior decades, but none on the scale that would soon descend upon the nation. 
    Adding to this vulnerability were the unusual weather patterns beginning to emerge in the mid-1860s. Winters grew colder and longer, and summers were often too short or too wet for successful harvesting. These anomalies were not yet fully understood at the time, and meteorological science was in its infancy. Farmers, used to working in rhythm with the natural seasons, found themselves unprepared for the climatic disruptions that lay ahead. The winter of 1867 would prove to be particularly devastating, marking the beginning of a three-year catastrophe.

    The untold history of America's mid-twentieth-century program of hepatitis infection research, its scientists' aspirations, and the damage the project caused human subjects 
     
     
      
    From 1942 through 1972, American biomedical researchers deliberately infected people with hepatitis. Government-sponsored researchers were attempting to discover the basic features of the disease and the viruses causing it, and to develop interventions that would quell recurring outbreaks. Drawing from extensive archival research and in-person interviews, Sydney Halpern traces the hepatitis program from its origins in World War II through its expansion during the initial Cold War years, to its demise in the early 1970s amid an outcry over research abuse. 
     
     
      
    The subjects in hepatitis studies were members of stigmatized groups—conscientious objectors, prison inmates, the mentally ill, and developmentally disabled adults and children. The book reveals how researchers invoked military and scientific imperatives and the rhetoric of a common good to win support for the experiments and access to recruits. Halpern examines the participants' long-term health consequences and raises troubling questions about hazardous human experiments aimed at controlling today's epidemic diseases.
