Dear colleagues, I’m pleased to share my new article, “Nature and the Law: In Defence of a Pluriversal, More-Than-Human Approach,” recently published in the Review of European, Comparative & International Environmental Law (RECIEL).
The paper examines how nature might be incorporated into the law—both conceptually and practically—through the emerging “Law and Nature” movement. First, I propose a framework for understanding different approaches to the Rights of Nature based on three dimensions: * Form: legal personhood vs. direct legal rights * Mechanism: anthropocentric vs. more-than-human representation * Orientation: technocratic vs. cultural worldviews Building on these distinctions, the article argues that realizing a truly transformative environmental law requires moving beyond modern, anthropocentric legal thinking toward a pluriversal approach—one that embraces multiple ontologies, respects Indigenous epistemologies, and reimagines law as a more-than-human system.
