ResponsAbility challenges conventional thinking about our
governance and legal frameworks. The cross-currents of persisting,
established worldviews, knowledge systems, institutions, law and
forms of governance are now at odds with future-facing innovations
designed to help societies transition to both low-carbon economies
and social equity. This book explores the ways in which we can move
to new governance and legal structures that more effectively
reflect our changed relationship with the Earth in the
Anthropocene. The book is written by a group of eminent scholars
and leading experts from a diverse range of backgrounds, all of
whom bring new knowledge and analysis from across oceanic and
continental regions. Many are from the discipline of law, whilst
others bring expertise on indigenous knowledge, climate, water,
governance and philosophy to engage with law. Contributors include
His Highness Tui Atua Tupua Tamasese Ta'isi Efi, Head of State of
Samoa, Judge Sir E. Taikakurei Durie, Dame Anne Salmond, Pierre
Calame and Adrian Macey. A number of scenarios are presented
throughout the book for the realignment of global and local law to
institutionalise responsibility for social, environmental and
earth-centered equity.
