Abstract

The article "Law and the Environment: An Act of Legal Kintsugi?" explores the concept of repair in environmental law, drawing parallels to the Japanese art of kintsugi. It delves into the failures of traditional environmental law, the need for a shift towards relationality, and the potential for law to facilitate repair in an era of ecological challenges. The authors propose a dynamic, generative approach to repair that embraces a relational understanding of law, emphasizing principles such as emplacement, connection, reciprocity, pluralism, and performance. The article invites readers to consider how law can reshape relationships with the environment towards joyful renewal. [Extracted from the article]
