Wild Law - In Practice aims to facilitate the transition of
Earth Jurisprudence from theory into practice. Earth Jurisprudence
is an emerging philosophy of law, coined by cultural historian and
geologian Thomas Berry. It seeks to analyse the contribution of law
in constructing, maintaining and perpetuating anthropocentrism and
addresses the ways in which this orientation can be undermined and
ultimately eliminated. In place of anthropocentrism, Earth
Jurisprudence advocates an interpretation of law based on the
ecocentric concept of an Earth community that includes both human
and nonhuman entities. Addressing topics that include a critique of
the effectiveness of environmental law in protecting the
environment, developments in domestic/constitutional law
recognising the rights of nature, and the regulation of
sustainability, Wild Law - In Practice is the first book to focus
specifically on the practical legal implications of Earth
Jurisprudence.
