“A Research Agenda for Climate Justice” is out
“A Research Agenda for Climate Justice”, edited by Paul G. Harris and published by Edward Elgar Publishing, is out.
Climate change will bring great suffering to communities, individuals and ecosystems. Those least responsible for the problem will suffer the most. Justice demands urgent action to reverse its causes and impacts. In this provocative new book, Paul G. Harris brings together a collection of original essays to explore alternative, innovative approaches to understanding and implementing climate justice in the future. Through investigations informed by philosophy, politics, sociology, law and economics, this Research Agenda reveals how climate change is a matter of justice and makes concrete proposals for more effective mitigation.
In this volume you can find a chapter by Sanna Kopra, titled “Responsibility for climate justice: the role of great powers”.
A Research Agenda for #Climate Justice is out now. My chapter argues that great powers have special #responsibility to promote climate justice and the #EnglishSchoolofIR should restore moral-philosophical debate to the heart of its scholarship. https://t.co/857x8Vj2R2
