The law for social-ecological resilience
Conference on the impact of law on environmental governance.
For questions related to the academic programme, please contact Jonas EbbessonFor other, general questions regarding the conference, please contact Cajsa Martinsson
The conference, which takes place in Stockholm 17-19 November 2010, is an international and transdisciplinary event which will highlight the impact of law on environmental governance, ecosystem management and sustainability policies — ranging from local to global contexts. The conference will discuss how legal structures, principles and processes, as well as core legal concepts impinge on the capacity of societies to manage ecosystems, withstand environmental degradation as well as economic shocks, and rebuild and renew itself afterwards. It will assess, analyse and debate the impact of law in these respects — and thus further the understanding of the role of law and improve the prospects for environmental governance and sustainable development.
The conference is co-arranged by the Stockholm Environmental Law and Policy Centre, at the Faculty of Law, and the Stockholm Resilience Centre, both at Stockholm University.
