Abstract

This edition of the Journal of Human Rights and the Environment is dedicated to the greatest struggle of our era – the ongoing – and increasingly urgent – struggle to confront the entrenched and growing violence (both epistemic and physical) of a global order that is rapidly entrenching both human and environmental vulnerability. ‘Business as usual’ is still obdurately committed to the political and juridical primacy of a fundamentally destructive capitalist ethic. What is needed – urgently now – is a fundamental worldview shift – a shift inaugurating transformed understandings and practices capable of unseating the dominant consumptive, pathological form of capitalism in the name of a renewing transformation of our deepest sense of who ‘we’ are as earthlings amongst other earthlings and earth systems.
