This article explores the potential contribution of international human rights law – specifically, the oft-neglected ‘right to science’ – to the interpretation, operation, and progressive development of international environmental law. Science and its applications play a critical role in environmental protection. At the same time, society faces persistent controversies at this interface. Environmental regimes may lack sufficient norms and tools for regulating upstream science and innovation processes, because they tend to focus narrowly on physical harms to environment, and may not address the wider ethical, legal, and social, and political concerns. The human right to science, which is codified in various international and regional human rights instruments, may serve to augment international environmental law, and contribute to more effective, equitable, and democratically legitimate, and accountable processes and outcomes in relation to the application science and technology in environmental regimes. The article begins by outlining the scope and contents of, as well as limitations on, the right to science, focusing on Article 15(1)(b) of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and its overlaps norms of international environmental law. It then analyses of the ways in which the right to science may influence the development of international environmental law by elucidating mechanisms for the integration of a human rights perspective in science and technology, and by outlining its potential substantive contributions to the development of international environmental law.

科学人权及其与国际环境法的关系

本文探讨了国际人权法——特别是经常被忽视的“科学权”——对国际环境法的解释、运作和逐步发展的潜在贡献。科学及其应用在环境保护中发挥着至关重要的作用。与此同时,社会在这个界面上面临着持续的争议。环境制度可能缺乏足够的规范和工具来规范上游科学和创新过程,因为它们往往只关注对环境的物理危害,而可能无法解决更广泛的伦理、法律、社会和政治问题。编纂在各种国际和区域人权文书中的科学人权可有助于加强国际环境法,并有助于更有效地、与在环境制度中应用科学和技术有关的公平、民主合法和负责任的过程和结果。本文首先概述了科学权的范围和内容以及对科学权的限制,重点是《经济、社会、文化权利国际公约》(ICESCR)第 15 条第 1 款(b)项及其重叠规范国际环境法。然后通过阐明将人权观点纳入科学和技术的机制,并概述科学权对国际环境法发展的潜在实质性贡献,分析科学权可能影响国际环境法发展的方式。 . 与在环境制度中应用科学和技术有关的负责任的过程和结果。本文首先概述了科学权的范围和内容以及对科学权的限制,重点是《经济、社会、文化权利国际公约》(ICESCR)第 15 条第 1 款(b)项及其重叠规范国际环境法。然后通过阐明将人权观点纳入科学和技术的机制,并概述科学权对国际环境法发展的潜在实质性贡献,分析科学权可能影响国际环境法发展的方式。 . 与在环境制度中应用科学和技术有关的负责任的过程和结果。本文首先概述了科学权的范围和内容以及对科学权的限制,重点是《经济、社会、文化权利国际公约》(ICESCR)第 15 条第 1 款(b)项及其重叠规范国际环境法。然后通过阐明将人权观点纳入科学和技术的机制,并概述科学权对国际环境法发展的潜在实质性贡献,分析科学权可能影响国际环境法发展的方式。 . 本文首先概述了科学权的范围和内容以及对科学权的限制,重点是《经济、社会、文化权利国际公约》(ICESCR)第 15 条第 1 款(b)项及其重叠规范国际环境法。然后通过阐明将人权观点纳入科学和技术的机制,并概述科学权对国际环境法发展的潜在实质性贡献,分析科学权可能影响国际环境法发展的方式。 . 本文首先概述了科学权的范围和内容以及对科学权的限制,重点是《经济、社会、文化权利国际公约》(ICESCR)第 15 条第 1 款(b)项及其重叠规范国际环境法。然后通过阐明将人权观点纳入科学和技术的机制,并概述科学权对国际环境法发展的潜在实质性贡献,分析科学权可能影响国际环境法发展的方式。 .
