dc.description.abstract | In this article, the author assesses whether Canadian Inuit sealers, who have suffered
economic damage in the wake of the introduction of the European Union (EU) ban
on seal products, can bring an action for damages against the EU before the European
Court of Justice. The author reviews why the EU ban on seal hunting violates World
Trade Office (WTO) law and discusses if, and why, Canadian Inuit sealers can rely on
a violation of the WTO Agreements as a legal basis in a potential claim for damages
under EU law. Moreover, the author criticizes the current state of EU law, which does
not grant reparation of the economic damage suffered by indigenous communities
when carrying out their traditional seal hunts that are protected under UN human
rights law. | en_US |
