Rights of Nature in Europe

  • Categories: Law

This book addresses the recognition of the Rights of Nature (RoN) in Europe, examining their conceptualisation and implementation. RoN refers to a diverse set of legal developments that seek to redefine Nature's status within the law, gradually emerging as a novel template for environmental protection. Countries like Ecuador and New Zealand, each with distinct histories and ways of dwelling in the world, have pioneered a new era in environmental governance by legally acknowledging rights or personhood for nature, ecosystems, and more-than-human populations. In recent years, Europe has witnessed growing interest in RoN, with academic, legislative, and political initiatives gaining momentum. A...

Un proceso constituyente democrático en Venezuela

  • Categories: Law

El proceso constituyente que se llevó a cabo en Venezuela entre 1998 y 1999 está lleno de contradicciones que dan pie para analizar algunas de las causas que conducen a la posibilidad de un cambio constitucional y a todas las etapas de un proceso constituyente democrático. Escasamente conocido por la doctrina especializada en constitution-making, resulta sumamente útil para contrastarlo con otras experiencias históricas y extraer ricas y variadas conclusiones para diseñar procesos de cambio constitucional que estén guiados por principios de participación, inclusividad y transparencia. Así, en la primera parte de Un proceso constituyente democrático en Venezuela, el autor desarrolla...

Transnational Solidarity

  • Categories: Law

The book analyses the concept and conditions of transnational solidarity, its challenges and opportunities, drawing on diverse disciplines as Law, Political Science, Sociology, Philosophy, Psychology and History. In the contemporary world, we see two major opposing trends. The first involves nationalistic and populistic movements. Transnational solidarity has been under pressure for a decade because of, among others, global economic and migration crises, leading to populistic and authoritarian leadership in some European countries, the United States and Brazil. Countries withdraw from international commitments on climate, trade and refugees and the European Union struggles with Brexit. The second trend, partly a reaction to the first, is a strengthened transnational grass-root community – a cosmopolitan movement – which protests primarily against climate change. Based on interdisciplinary reflections on the concept of transnational solidarity, its challenges and opportunities are analysed, drawing on Europe as a focal case study for a broader, global perspective.
