Principles of Justice and Real-World Climate Politics, Paperback / softback Book

Principles of Justice and Real-World Climate Politics Paperback / softback

Edited by Sarah, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Marywood University Kenehan, Corey Katz

Paperback / softback

Description

There is a major divide between the work of normative theorists and concrete climate action (or inaction) politics and policies.

In this volume, authors tackle the strained relationships between principles of justice and climate politics by responding to real-world climate politics and policies, offering proposals and analyses that take concerns of feasibility seriously, and identifying immediate justice and feasibility concerns with recent proposals for climate action.

Contributors look at questions of feasibility as they relate to specific international institutions like the IPCC and UNFCCC, and widely discussed principles of climate justice, including backward-looking principles like polluter pays and forward-looking principles like ability to pay.

Others explore the feasibility hurdles and justice concerns that challenge popular mitigation proposals. These international and interdisciplinary contributors re-think the ways the principles of climate justice should be applied, speaking to students, research scholars, activists, and policymakers.
