The Global Climate Regime and Transitional Justice by Sonja Klinsky and Jasmina Brankovic [Routledge, London and New York, NY, 2018, 196pp, ISBN: 978-0-415-78602-7, £115 (h/bk)]

Abstract

This book analyses, from a socio-political and legal standpoint, critical issues of justice raised by climate change regulation, through the lens of transitional justice regimes. Similar to a transition from conflict to the peaceful functioning of an ordered society, climate change arguably compels a transition from a fossil fuel-based economy to a green system. Klinsky and Brankovic elaborate on such transitional analogies from both a past and future perspective and envisage possible solutions to societal disparities in the climate change regulatory regime.
