Technologies like CRISPR and gene drives are ushering in a new era
of genetic engineering, wherein the technical means to modify DNA
are cheaper, faster, more accurate, more widely accessible, and
with more far-reaching effects than ever before. These cutting-edge
technologies raise legal, ethical, cultural, and ecological
questions that are so broad and consequential for both human and
other-than-human life that they can be difficult to grasp. What is
clear, however, is that the power to directly alter not just a
singular form of life but also the genetics of entire species and
thus the composition of ecosystems is currently both inadequately
regulated and undertheorized. In Gene Editing, Law, and the
Environment, distinguished scholars from law, the life sciences,
philosophy, environmental studies, science and technology studies,
animal health, and religious studies examine what is at stake with
these new biotechnologies for life and law, both human and beyond.
