Geopolitical changes combined with the increasing urgency of
ambitious climate action have re-opened debates about justice and
international climate policy. Mechanisms and insights from
transitional justice have been used in over thirty countries across
a range of conflicts at the interface of historical responsibility
and imperatives for collective futures. However, lessons from
transitional justice theory and practice have not been
systematically explored in the climate context. The comparison
gives rise to new ideas and strategies that help address climate
change dilemmas. This book examines the potential of transitional
justice insights to inform global climate governance. It lays out
core structural similarities between current global climate
governance tensions and transitional justice contexts. It explores
how transitional justice approaches and mechanisms could be
productively applied in the climate change context. These include
responsibility mechanisms such as amnesties, legal accountability
measures, and truth commissions, as well as reparations and
institutional reform. The book then steps beyond reformist
transitional justice practice to consider more transformative
approaches, and uses this to explore a wider set of possibilities
for the climate context. Each chapter presents one or more concrete
proposals arrived at by using ideas from transitional justice and
applying them to the justice tensions central to the global climate
context. By combining these two fields the book provides a new
framework through which to understand the challenges of addressing
harms and strengthening collective climate action. This book will
be of great interest to scholars and practitioners of climate
change and transitional justice.
