The world has witnessed a concerning surge in the frequency and severity of disruptive events, ranging from severe weather phenomena like floods, wildfires, hurricanes, and other natural disasters to global health crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. These events have profound impacts on nature, human life, and the economy, necessitating urgent action to mitigate their causes and adapt to their consequences.
In response to the challenges posed by these disruptions, this monograph proposes an analytical approach to developing legal responses that can ensure the needs of present and future generations can be met through energy systems, infrastructure development, and natural resources management. Resilience is viewed as a common framework for interpreting and developing energy, infrastructure, and natural resources law, as it encompasses the ability of systems to adapt to changing circumstances and maintain their functionality.
The monograph is organized into thematic chapters and includes case studies from various jurisdictions, providing a comprehensive mapping and assessment of legal responses to disruptive nature-based events. It examines possible legal pathways for achieving more sustainable outcomes, drawing upon insights from resilience and social-ecological thinking.
By exploring the intersection of law, resilience, and social-ecological considerations, this monograph aims to contribute to the development of legal frameworks that can better address the challenges posed by disruptive events and promote sustainable development in the face of uncertainty and change.
