University of Bristol Law School Blog: Maximising the Legitimacy of the EU’s Regulation of Geoengineering Research

Blog article on Sargoni, Janine (2016). „This new article* sets out how risky SRM field research might be regulated in the EU in such a way as to maximise legitimacy.[nbsp] It suggests that under particular conditions the EU could delegate to an independent agency powers to undertake what I call an incorporated risk assessment; an assessment in which science and politics, expertise and lay-knowledges are combined.[nbsp] Legitimacy would be maximised because the EU’s regulatory framework relating to the risks of SRM field research would be legal and also responsive, flexible, deliberative and inclusive.“
