Özet
International environmental law has emerged recently. Yet, its development is very dynamic. However, there remain controversies surrounding the content and normative value of its principles. The principle of sustainable development is to name only one example. The paper seeks to explore the International Court of Justice's judgment, on the Gabcikovo-Nagymaros case concerning the implementation of a treaty concluded between Czechoslovakia and Hungary with respect to the utilization of the waters of the River Danube, in order to find out what implications the dispute had on the principles, both on substantive and procedural ones, of international environmental law. The author discusses the judgment and concludes, despite the fact that neither the World Court offered a final settlement nor the parties have found a negotiated solution of the dispute so far, the judgment made a considerable contribution to the further understanding of the principles of international law on the environment.
