The ocean and its inhabitants sketch and stretch our understandings
of law in unexpected ways. Inspired by the blue turn in the social
sciences and humanities, Blue Legalities explores how regulatory
frameworks and governmental infrastructures are made, reworked, and
contested in the oceans. Its interdisciplinary contributors analyze
topics that range from militarization and Maori cosmologies to
island building in the South China Sea and underwater robotics.
Throughout, Blue Legalities illuminates the vast and unusual
challenges associated with regulating the turbulent materialities
and lives of the sea. Offering much more than an analysis of legal
frameworks, the chapters in this volume show how the
more-than-human ocean is central to the construction of terrestrial
institutions and modes of governance. By thinking with the
more-than-human ocean, Blue Legalities questions what we think we
know-and what we don't know-about oceans, our earthly planet, and
ourselves. Contributors. Stacy Alaimo, Amy Braun, Irus Braverman,
