This groundbreaking Research Handbook is the first to establish a profound connection between law and Earth system science by employing the epistemic framework of the planetary boundaries. It delves into the critical examination of the legal and governance dimensions of this framework, encompassing not only individual planetary boundaries but also a wide array of systemic concerns, including the capacity of law to safeguard us within the safe operating space defined by these boundaries.
The esteemed contributors, each a leading expert in their respective field, explore the multifaceted role of law in addressing the intricate challenges and regulatory complexities associated with governing the Earth system. They delve into three thematic areas: the overarching legal, ethical, and governance dimensions of the planetary boundaries; their diverse international law dimensions and the complexities they present for international law; and the extent to which the law already accommodates some of the aspects illuminated by each planetary boundary, as well as the potential for legal reform.
Lawyers, Earth system scientists, and governance experts alike will greatly benefit from the comprehensive mapping of the next phase of international environmental law presented in the chapters of this book. Moreover, this handbook serves as a vital resource for regulators, legislators, and policy-makers seeking a thorough exploration of the intricate relationship between law and each of the nine planetary boundaries.
