Reviews
The book provides a practice-oriented and comprehensive analysis of the role of IHRL in regulating the exploration and exploitation of natural resources. ... While the book is accessible to those approaching the subject for the first time, it identifies pressing areas for further examination that will be of interest to advanced researchers. With decades of experience researching on natural resource management and indigenous peoples' rights, local community rights, and benefit sharing, Gilbert has succeeded in developing a truly interdisciplinary resource that will be essential for scholars, policymakers and practitioners in the fields of human rights, environmental studies, international law, international relations, and resource politics. * Michael Addaney, Chinese Journal of Environmental Law *
