Guilherme Pratti demonstrates the pivotal role of the law in the struggle against climate change and introduces a novel understanding of the ‘technique phenomenon’, whereby legislation can shape the main features of sustainable development and steer its attainable achievements. Through exploration of international environmental law and the European Green Deal, Pratti illustrates how climate change can be framed as a legal challenge. He emphasises how regulation is resulting in the Earth being classed as a legal object, which, in turn, has the potential to aid future environmental global governance.
The Great Adaptation is an invaluable resource for students and academics in international environmental and climate law, philosophy of technology, science, regulation, legal theory, and the sociology of globalization. This book is also of interest to policymakers and those wishing to understand the philosophical aspects of legal measures against climate change.
Guilherme Pratti, Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Institute of Law, Politics and Development (DIRPOLIS), Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies, Italy
