Routledge Handbook of Human Rights and Climate Governance (Paperback): Sebastien Duyck, Sebastien Jodoin, Alyssa Johl Routledge Handbook of Human Rights and Climate Governance (Paperback)
Sebastien Duyck, Sebastien Jodoin, Alyssa Johl
R1,558 Discovery Miles 15 580 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Over the last decade, the world has increasingly grappled with the complex linkages emerging between efforts to combat climate change and to protect human rights around the world. The Paris Climate Agreement adopted in December 2015 recognized the necessity for governments to take into consideration their human rights obligations when taking climate action. However, important gaps remain in understanding how human rights can be used in practice to develop and implement effective and equitable solutions to climate change at multiple levels of governance. This book brings together leading scholars and practitioners to offer a timely and comprehensive analysis of the opportunities and challenges for integrating human rights in diverse areas and forms of global climate governance. The first half of the book explores how human rights principles and obligations can be used to reconceive climate governance and shape responses to particular aspects of climate change. The second half of the book identifies lessons in the integration of human rights in climate advocacy and governance and sets out future directions in this burgeoning domain. Featuring a diverse range of contributors and case studies, this Handbook will be an essential resource for students, scholars, practitioners and policy makers with an interest in climate law and governance, human rights and international environmental law.

Climate Governance and Federalism - A Forum of Federations Comparative Policy Analysis (Hardcover): Sebastien Jodoin, Joana... Climate Governance and Federalism - A Forum of Federations Comparative Policy Analysis (Hardcover)
Sebastien Jodoin, Joana Setzer, Alan Fenna
R3,885 Discovery Miles 38 850 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The majority of the world's largest carbon emitters are either federations or have adopted systems of decentralised governance. The realisation of the world's climate mitigation objectives therefore depends in large part on whether and how governments within federal systems can cooperate to reduce carbon emissions and catalyse the emergence of low-carbon societies. This volume brings together leading experts to explore whether federal or decentralised systems help or hinder efforts to mitigate and adapt to climate change. It reviews the opportunities and challenges federalism offers for the development and implementation of climate mitigation and adaption policies and identifies the conditions that influence the outcomes of climate governance. Including in-depth case studies of 14 different jurisdictions, this is an essential resource for academics, policymakers and practitioners interested in climate governance, and the best practices for enhancing climate action. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Forest Preservation in a Changing Climate - REDD+ and Indigenous and Community Rights in Indonesia and Tanzania (Paperback):... Forest Preservation in a Changing Climate - REDD+ and Indigenous and Community Rights in Indonesia and Tanzania (Paperback)
Sebastien Jodoin
R1,144 Discovery Miles 11 440 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book provides a comprehensive socio-legal examination of how global efforts to fight climate change by reducing carbon emissions in the forestry sector (known as REDD+) have affected the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities in developing countries. Grounded in extensive qualitative empirical research conducted globally, the book shows that the transnational legal process for REDD+ has created both serious challenges and unexpected opportunities for the recognition and protection of indigenous and community rights. It reveals that the pursuit of REDD+ has resulted in important variations in how human rights standards are understood and applied across multiple sites of law in the field of REDD+, with mixed results for indigenous peoples and local communities in Indonesia and Tanzania. With its original findings, rigourous research design, and interdisciplinary analytical framework, this book will make a valuable contribution to the study of transnational legal processes in a globalizing world. This title is also available as Open Access.

Sustainable Development, International Criminal Justice, and Treaty Implementation (Paperback): Sebastien Jodoin, Marie-Claire... Sustainable Development, International Criminal Justice, and Treaty Implementation (Paperback)
Sebastien Jodoin, Marie-Claire Cordonier Segger
R1,311 Discovery Miles 13 110 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Sustainable Development, International Criminal Justice, and Treaty Implementation provides a serious and timely perspective on the relationship between two important and dynamic fields of international law. Comprising chapters written by leading academics and international lawyers, this book examines how the principles and practices of international criminal law and sustainable development can contribute to one another's elaboration, interpretation and implementation. Chapters in the book discuss the potential and limitations of international criminalization as a means for protecting the basic foundations of sustainable development; the role of existing international crimes in penalizing serious forms of economic, social, environmental and cultural harm; the indirect linkages that have developed between sustainable development and various mechanisms of criminal accountability and redress; and innovative proposals to broaden the scope of international criminal justice. With its rigorous and innovative arguments, this book forms a unique and urgent contribution to current debates on the future of global justice and sustainability.
