natural resources, Principle of state have sovereigntyAbstract
Although there is no clear definition of the basic principles of international environmental law, the principle of states’ sovereignty over their natural resources and the responsibility not to cause transboundary environmental damage; the principle of preventive action; the principle of cooperation; the principle of sustainable development; the precautionary principle; the polluter pays principle; and the principle of common but differentiated responsibility have been identified. This paper examines the legal terminology issues that may arise when reflecting the basic principles of international environmental law in Mongolian legal norms. For example, this article proposes a method for defining the difference between the ‘Principle of Preventive Action’ and the ‘Precautionary Principle,’ as well as suggests terms that could be used in the translation of these principles into future national legal norms.
Олон улсын хүрээлэн буй орчны эрх зүй дэх үндсэн зарчим ба Монгол Улсын эрх зүйн хэм хэмжээнд тусгах нэр томьёоны асуудал
[Товч утга]
Хүрээлэн буй орчны эрх зүйн зарчим гэж тогтсон тодорхой жагсаалт байхгүй хэдий боловч “principle of state have sovereignty over their natural resources and the responsibility not to cause transboundary environmental damage”; “principle of preventive action”; “precautionary principle”; “polluter pays principle”; “principle of common but differentiated responsibility” “principle of co-operation”; “principle of sustainable development” зэрэг зарчим байдаг тухайд олон улсын хүрээлэн буй орчны эрх зүйн бүтээлд тэмдэглэжээ. Энэхүү өгүүлэлд олон улсын хүрээлэн буй орчны эрх зүйн зарчмыг Монгол улсын эрх зүйн хэм хэмжээнд тусгахад үүсэж болох нэр томьёоны асуудлыг судалсан болно. Тухайлбал, “Principle of preventive action” болон “Precautionary principle” хоорондын ялгааг хэрхэн тодорхойлох, үндэсний эрх зүйн хэм хэмжээнд цаашид хэрэглэж болох нэр томьёоны орчуулга дээр санал дэвшүүлсэн болно.
