Another aspect of the course will be an analysis of the limits to protection imposed by international trade law, and the course will also consider legal and policy responses to human-created environmental threats to marine animal life. Finally, the class will explore development issues and the role of multilateral institutions and trade agreements in both the exploitation and protection of marine wildlife.
