Features: This book explores the issue of public participation in the environmental impact assessment system. From the perspective of environmental law, both public participation in environmental protection and public participation in environmental impact assessment are only part of citizen participation or can be seen as self-governance and expansion of citizen participation in the field of environmental protection. In matters of environmental impact assessment and even environmental protection, public participation holds irreplaceable significance. From the perspective of scientific research topic selection, the theme discussed in this book is a very small issue. In environmental law research, environmental impact assessment is already a relatively small issue, and the theme of this book is the issue of public participation in environmental impact assessment. Although the issue is small, its significance is great. This book attempts to conduct an integrated study on environmental rights and the public participation in the environmental impact assessment system. It is believed that this will, on one hand, help to reasonably define the nature and content of environmental rights and find a way for the development of environmental rights, and on the other hand, provide a legal basis for public participation in the environmental impact assessment system.
