Wild Law: A Manifesto for Earth Justice, by Cormac Cullinan

Download this episode ( 45 min )  
We are rapidly destroying the Earth. It is becoming clear that many of the treaties, laws and policies concluded in recent years have failed to slow down, let alone halt or reverse, this process. Cormac Cullinan shows that the survival of the community of life on Earth (including humans) requires us to alter fundamentally our understanding of the nature and purpose of law and governance, rather than merely changing laws. In describing what this new ‘Earth governance’ or ‘Earth jurisprudence’ might look like, he also gives practical guidance on how to begin moving towards it.

Cormac Cullinan is chief executive officer of EnAct International, an environmental law and policy consultancy headquartered in Cape Town, South Africa and a partner in the specialist environmental law firm Winstanley, Smith and Cullinan Inc. A former shipping and international commercial lawyer, and anti-apartheid activist, he has specialised in the field of environmental law and policy since 1992.

Launch of the book 'Wild Law: A Manifesto for Earth Justice' by Cormac Cullinan, Burgh House, Hampstead, Wednesday, 14th April 2004.
