The anthropocene judgements project : futureproofing the common law

Abstract

This book is a collection of speculative judgments that, along with accompanying commentaries, pursue a novel enquiry into how judges might respond to the formidable and planetary scaled challenges of the Anthropocene. The book's contributors - from Australia, Asia, Europe and the United Kingdom - take up a range of issues: including multispecies justice, the challenges of intergenerational justice, dimensions of post-colonial justice, the potential contribution of AI platforms to the judgment process, and the future of judging and law in and beyond the Anthropocene. The project takes its inspiration from existing critical judgments projects
