Long description:

This timely book explores the innovative non-doctrinal methods currently being used in environmental law research. Drawing on their extensive experience, expert contributors provide insight on how creative approaches to research can improve understanding of law
and policy, leading to more effective legal protection for the environment.

Focusing on qualitative research, chapters explain how to use non-doctrinal methods in environmental law research, including in-depth examples of successful uses. Contributors identify the theoretical and practical challenges facing contemporary environmental law
researchers, providing guidance on designing productive research programs. Alongside practical tips, the book examines the scholarly philosophy of environmental law research, determining how and why it differs from other areas of research. It focuses in particular on how to respect scientific principles when moving away from traditional doctrinal research methods.

Non-doctrinal Research Methods in Environmental Law will be an invaluable guide for environmental law academics and researchers seeking to expand their understanding of modern research methods. With extensive case studies and practical guidance, it will also be a useful resource for research methods scholars and teachers.
