Edited by the late Meinhard Doelle, formerly Professor of Law and Sara L. Seck, Associate Professor of Law, Schulich School of Law, Marine & Environmental Law Institute, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

‘Meinhard Doelle and Sara L. Seck offer a brave and overdue intervention into conventional climate law and loss & damage scholarship. They adopt an unflinchingly equity-oriented approach to climate law and explore some of the most contentious yet essential challenges – including climate justice, racial capitalism, colonialism, intersectionality and private sector participation. In addition to grappling with these challenges head on, the book also offers granular analysis of core questions of international law and international institutions and would be essential reading for anyone interested in climate law, loss & damage, or more far-reaching questions of how to draw upon the rule of law to build a safer and more equitable world.’
