VICENTE, Fernando  y  MENDEZ, Gonzalo. Análisis de la participación pública transfronteriza en las consultas ambientales entre España y Portugal. GOT [online]. 2015, n.7, pp.327-358. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2015.7.015.

In recent times the Transboundary Environmental Impact Assessment (TEIA) in the Iberian context has undergone a significant increase in the number of cross-border projects, submitted to environmental consultations in the neighbour state. Taking into account that the issue of public participation is a key element to assess the effectiveness of the processes of transboundary environmental consultations, this paper aims to analyze such participation in the most recent period. The analysis of the current regulation of both states in transboundary participation reveals that it is fairly restrictive on attributing the right to participate on the one hand, and, on the other, the case studies show that the involvement of the civil society in the consultations stage is practically non-existent.

Palabras clave : environmental impact assessment; transboundary consultation; Spain; Portugal; public participation.
