About the authorsThe Avosetta Group is a small informal group of lawyers whose main purpose is to further the development of environmental law in the European Union and its Member States. Avosetta is the Latin name of a rare bird which resulted in the European Court of Justice establishing far-reaching principles of European nature protection law in the German Leybucht Case. The group held its inaugural meeting at Bremen University in January 2001. It has its own website on www.avosetta.org. Those participating in Avosetta are invited due to the recognition of their distinction in European environmental law, and they take part in a personal and independent capacity. Nevertheless, Avosetta discussions aim to reflect a comprehensive cross-section of legal cultures within Europe, and will generally include up to two participants from each Member and accession States. |

Book ReviewsAlessandro Fodella in European Environmental Law Review 2004, p. 30-32: "In conclusion, The European Convention and the Future of European Environmental Law gives an in-depth and competent analysis of the most important issues relating to the future of environmental law in Europe, in a complete and critical manner, and with a proactive approach, also thanks to the many practical proposals that are integrated in the many different comments." Pal Wanneras in Legal Issues of Economic Integration 2004/4, p. 305-306: "the book is a great success, and it seems in fact that some of the suggestions by the Avosetta group, e.g. on the principle of integration, may have contributed to 'green' amendments to the Draft Constitutional Treaty." |
