Edited by Anna Grear, Adjunct Professor of Law, University of Waikato, New Zealand and Evadne Grant, Associate Lecturer, University of the West of England, UK and Senior Editor, Journal of Human Rights and the Environment<i>‘. . . a magnificently rich, highly critical, at times deeply challenging and troubling, and perhaps even paradigm-shifting, collection of works that has been authored by some of the most progressive and interrogative scholars of our time. In their analysis, none of the contributors take anything for granted; they relentlessly push against parochial closures that obscure the possible contours of a re-imagined relationship between human rights and the environment. The book ultimately succeeds in offering a new juridical imaginary for those of us who are concerned with the deeply troubled and complex relationship between human rights and the environment.’</i>
- Louis J. Kotzé, North-West University, South Africa, University of Lincoln, UK and Global Network for the Study of Human Rights and the Environment,
Leading scholars in the field discuss, in four parts, Philosophical Investigations, Reconfiguring the Legal, Activism and Praxis, and Multi-level Reformulations, to offer imaginative intellectual engagements with a range of challenges vexing the human-environmental-legal 'interface'.
Scholars and students of human rights and environmental law and practitioners in the field alike will find the book to be a timely and thoughtful engagement with urgent human dilemmas.
