Taylor & Francis Ltd Ecological Law and the Planetary Crisis
Book SynopsisThis book uses a transdisciplinary systems approach to examine how Earth's human-caused ecological crisis arose and presents a new legal approach for overcoming it. Ecological Law and the Planetary Crisis first examines how the history of humanity's social metabolism, along with the history of human inventions and ideas, led to the human-Earth dilemma we see today and explains why contemporary law is inadequate for confronting this dilemma. The book goes on to propose ecological lawlaw that maintains human activity within ecological limits such as planetary boundaries while ensuring social justice and equityas an essential element of an urgently needed radical pathway of change toward a perpetual, mutually enhancing human-Earth relationship. Finally, it offers a systems-based analytical tool for organizing actions to promote the transition from environmental to ecological law. Increasing the visibility, clarity and development of ecological law, this book will bTrade Review"Refreshingly, this lucid and engaging book devotes little time to handwringing over this ‘planetary crisis’ and instead moves swiftly to how to transform legal systems to ensure that humanity lives within Earth’s ecological limits. Garver views legal systems as complex, adaptive, and highly interconnected systems, and argues that a transition from environmental laws to ecological laws is essential to bringing about what Thomas Berry referred to as a ‘mutually enhancing human-Earth relationship.’ Geoffrey Garver is a leading ecological law scholar and this book demonstrates why. By showing how to combine an analysis of the ‘leverage points’ which can be used to create systemic change with an assessment of those features that ‘lock in’ resistance to change, he makes an important contribution to our understanding of how to bring about the legal transformations necessary to establish ecologically viable human societies." -- Cormac Cullinan, author of Wild Law: A manifesto for Earth Justice "The timing of this publication is extremely fortuitous. Prior to the Corona-pandemic, ecological law might have been viewed as utopian, now it becomes vitally important for humanity and the book shows why. A precise analysis of systemic failure, it defines the principles and rules of Earth-based law and governance. A truly outstanding read." -- Klaus Bosselmann, University of Auckland, New Zealand"Geoffrey Garver stands without peer on the intersection of ecological law and systems thinking. This nuanced and sophisticated book provides one of the clearest accounts yet about how law can be reconfigured to promote a mutually enhancing human-Earth relationship." -- Peter D. Burdon, Associate Dean (learning and teaching), University of Adelaide Law School, Australia"This book offers a bold vision of ecological law, a radical shift of how we think and go about environmental regulation. [It] will be useful both for students and scholars of environmental law." -- Giorgos Kallis, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain"Absolutely indispensable, this fiery legal work introduces the content of ecological law, a conception of law of which the fundamental idea is to regulate the human-Earth relationship within ecological limits without neglecting law’s major principle: justice. Geoffrey Garver is a pioneer and revolutionizes legal theory with his transdisciplinary approach and his direct proposal to test Ecological Law on the political economic level as a strategy for degrowth." -- Cristiane Derani, Dean of Graduate Studies, Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, BrazilTable of ContentsPart 1: The Role of Law in the Rise of the Global Ecological Crisis 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd EcoLaw
This book re-imagines law as ecolaw.The key insight of ecological thinking, that everything is connected to everything else at least on the earth, and possibly in the cosmos has become a truism of contemporary theory. Taking this insight as a starting point for understanding law involves suspending theoretical certainties and boundaries. It involves suspending theory itself as a conceptual project and practicing it as an embodied and material project. Although an ecological imagining of law can be metaphorical, and can be highly imaginative and suggestive, this book shows that it is also literal. Law is part of the material everything' that is connected to everything else. This means that once the previous certainties of legal thinking have been dismantled, it is after all possible to think of law as natural' as embedded in and emergent from a normative biophysical nature. The book proposes that there exists a natural nomos: animals, plants, and Earth systems that p

Taylor & Francis Animals Welfare and the Law
Book SynopsisIn this objective, practical and authoritative introductory text the author reveals how the fundamental principles of the human-animal relationship drive the development of animal law. The book explains the criteria by which the lawful use of animals is determined, and how these criteria impact evolving standards of animal protection and define the responsibilities of people in their interactions with animals. The author identifies 29 key principles which constitute the core knowledge necessary for people involved in debating, assessing, and guiding the evolution of society's national and international rulebook of animal welfare law. The book also considers animal welfare and law in the context of a global market through discussion of common issues such as climate change, biosecurity, food safety and food supply.
