The Law's Ultimate Frontier: Towards an Ecological JurisprudenceAuthor :
Hardback
Published : Thursday 18 May 2023
Description
This important book offers an ambitious and interdisciplinary vision of how private international law (or the conflict of laws) might serve as a heuristic for re-working our general understandings of legality in directions that respond to ever-deepening global ecological crises. Unusual in legal scholarship, the author borrows (in bricolage mode) from the work of Bruno Latour, alongside indigenous cosmologies, extinction theories and Levinassian phenomenology, to demonstrate why this fields specific frontier location at the outpost of the law - where it is viewed from the outside as obscure and from the inside as a self-contained normative world - generates its potential power to transform law generally and globally. Combining pragmatic and pluralist theory with an excavation of `shadow ecological dimensions of law, the author, a recognised authority within the field as conventionally understood, offers a truly global view. Put simply, it is a generational magnum opus. All international and transnational lawyers, be they in the private or public field, should read this book.
