Elgar Research Agendas

Edited by Dina Lupin, Lecturer in Law, University of Southampton Law School, UK, and Director, Global Network for Human Rights and the Environment

This important book creatively explores and uncovers new ways of understanding the intersections between human rights and the environment, as well as introducing readers to the ways in which we can use new methodologies, case studies and approaches in human rights to address environmental issues.

This title contains one or more Open Access chapters.

‘Organized around four themes – repositioning, reinventing, relocating, and rethinking human rights – Dina Lupin skillfully brings together a diverse array of essays by an impressive group of scholars to give the reader a flavor of this burgeoning area of international law, made even more significant by the UN General Assembly resolution recognizing a clean, healthy and sustainable environment as a human right and the worsening climate crisis. An important contribution to the scholarship on human rights and the environment.’
