Who Counts? Recognition, participation and access to environmental justice in land-use regulation: An Australian case study

Abstract

Theme 2: Activism and Praxis ... 'Do planning laws reinforce structural injustices?' 'Do regulatory systems adequately address the central question of "who counts?"' 'What does a justice as recognition lens reveal about who counts and about forces of marginalisation/invisibilisation in law?' 'How can law "see" the marginalised?' 'What values and policy tools best open law's receptor sites to recognitional justice?' 'What subject is assumed/constituted by planning regulations?' 'How should recognition function in attempting to resolve environmental justice dilemmas?'
