‘Trying to predict the future directions and agendas of a highly volatile and dynamic discipline like environmental law is never easy. A Research Agenda for Environmental Law is, however, an excellent attempt at mapping the cutting-edge interactions of law, social processes, and environmental challenges. Whether these interactions take the form of climate assemblies, forever chemicals, rewilding or the shadows of colonial legacies, the volume offers a clear and enlightening overview.’
