Anthropocene is the proposed name for the new geological epoch in
which humans have overwhelming impact on planetary processes. This
edited volume invites reflection on the meaning and role of law in
light of changing planetary realties. Taking the concept of the
Anthropocene as a starting point, the contributions to this book
address emerging legal issues from a transnational environmental
law perspective. How law interacts with, and how law governs,
global environmental problems is a challenge that legal scholars
have approached with vigour over the last decade. More recently,
the concept of the Anthropocene has become a topic that researchers
have also begun to grapple with by engaging with disciplines beyond
legal scholarship. One avenue of research that has emerged to
address global environmental problems is transnational
environmental law. Adopting ‘transnational law’ as a lens or
framework through which to analyse environmental law takes a
broader approach to the ways in which law may be assessed and
deployed to meet planetary challenges. The chapters within this
book provide a timely intervention into the theoretical and
practical approaches of transnational environmental law in a time
of significant uncertainty and environmental and human crises. The
chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue
of Transnational Legal Theory.
