Abstract
Environmental law in the EU is one of the most comprehensive and concrete environmental laws in the world. Legislative system on environmental issues in the EU incorporate a series of principles, regulations and directives which not only must be observed by the EU’s institutions, legal and natural persons but also have to be taken into account in all policies of the EU. So the liability law of breach of these laws and principles have been arranged strictly. In this contribution I intend to, establish a Persian literature on the topic and also, in an analytic- descriptive manner, I will study on the dominated principles on the liability of persons and states in preservation of environment in the EU. To do so, first, I skim through the liability of the EU essential principles, after that I study the content and context in the 2004 directive and in the last part I will analyze method of implementation and success of this directive in fulfilling its objectives.
