Constitutional legal protection of ecological values in the Republic of Serbia

Abstract

The constitutional legal protection of ecological values in the Republic of Serbia is regulated through a complex and multi-layered protection of the right to a healthy environment. It is first seen in the constitutional guarantees and declarative emphasis on the developed ecological values and the principles that have been translated into constitutional human rights. The practice of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Serbia with respect to environmental protection is modest for the educational constitutional formulation that reduces ecological values to an abstract and general right to a healthy environment that cannot be adequately protected.
