The Environmental Victim Perception and Politics of a Social Phenomenon Pelagia I. Papanikolaou LL.M. (Penal Law), PhD (Criminology) Faculty of Law / University of Athens Abstract: If the environment comprises an intrinsic legal value, then the latter is by definition oriented to protect society; whereas the concept of the victim refers and aims to protect individuals. The writer is trying to give an answer to several questions, concerning: the victim(s), its identity, the characteristics of the environmental victimization etc. Further, she applies the method of con- tent analysis and finally, she discusses the phenomenon in its national and international dimensions while making propositions about the environmen- tal policies in general, the environmental crime prevention and victim reme- diation, in particular. , render this volume a handy tool for all those interested ISBN 978-960-622-568-0 COPYRIGHT All rights reserved.
