more details |
The matrix of laws and regulation which were established at the beginning of the nuclear industry does not lend itself to uniform categorisation. Even if nuclear law is not completely self-ruling, as it takes account of norms governing other branches of law, it presents specificities and fluctuates from country to country. However, it results in an efficient regime of controls upon international nuclear trade to inhibit proliferation of nuclear armaments by extensive regulation in the fields of radiation protection, nuclear safety and radioactive waste management, to name but a few. The specificity of international aspects of the legal framework surrounding nuclear energy led to the drafting of a series of international conventions which both preceded and promoted the harmonisation of domestic legislation and regulations. Nuclear law is in a continuous state of flux in order to adjust to technological developments and to manage the issues associated with their use. Considered to be a reference work for both professionals and academics in the field of nuclear law, IJNucL is a unique international publication providing its subscribers with up-to-date information on all major developments falling within the domain of nuclear law.  Objectives
The goals of the IJNucL are to provide a forum for thoughtful analysis focusing on issues of concern to nuclear law and regulations, to arrange for and promote studies and the knowledge of legal problems related to the peaceful utilization of nuclear energy under the special aspects of the protection of man and his environment, to help promote the exchange of information and to contribute the development of legislation governing the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. IJNucL will draw together, analyse and propagate on a world-wide basis, information on nuclear legislation, jurisprudence, international agreements, other relevant developments in the field of nuclear law.
Readership
Managers, legal practitioners, judges and academics, researchers, scholars, law firms, university law libraries, policy-makers, government agencies and departments, institutions. Contents
IJNucL will publish high quality theoretical and practical issues, critical analysis of current issues from a wide variety of topics refereed and written to the highest standards, providing innovative and authoritative appraisals of current and emerging concepts, policies and practice about nuclear law.
