Abstract:
Justice has been a key topic in environmental politics since its very beginning. In both the political-practical and the theoretical fields, green demands for sustainability and radical democracy have been articulated as demands for justice. However, the contours of justice are not easy to delineate, insofar as it challenges mainstream approaches to justice and political-philosophical traditions. The aim of this presentation is to map the constellation of current debates on the relationship between justice and environmental politics in contemporary political philosophy and green political theory. The approach does not pretend to be all-inclusive or fully comprehensive but sufficiently representative. Main debates are ordered across three axes. First, the debate around the ‘extensionist’ understanding of justice is presented, in three levels: intragenerational, intergenerational and interspecies justice. Second, recent discussions on climate justice, and the most relevant and well-known principles of climate justice are described. In these two domains, the analytical-normative perspective as well as the focus on distribution prevail. Finally, in the last part, other non-distributive approaches which emphasize diverse dimensions of justice, such as participatory or transitional, are presented.
