Session Abstract:

Human groups nowadays have to react in response to rapid changes in their environment. And they have to cope with evidence showing that these changes are caused by human activities. This obliges them to question their actions, and to take decisions about them. This puts their political institutions and their laws under pressure, as well as the interplay between these two crucial instruments of modern societies: their political and legal systems. This session brings together five roundtables, each focusing on a specific aspect of this interplay, all of them aiming at contributing to an assessment of our means to design, orient and carry out collective action for justice in the Anthropocene.

Los grupos humanos deben hoy reaccionar cara a rápidos cambios en su medio ambiente. Y deben enfrentar el hecho que estos cambios se deben a actividades humanas. Eso les obliga a interrogar sus acciones, y a tomar decisiones sobre ellas. Lo que pone bajo presión sus instituciones políticas y sus leyes, así como la articulación entre estos dos instrumentos cruciales de las sociedades modernas: sus sistemas políticos y jurídicos. Esta sesión reúne cinco mesas redondas, cada una tratando de un aspecto de esta articulación, y teniendo todas ellas la ambición de contribuir para la evaluación de nuestros medios de diseñar, orientar, y llevar a cabo acciones colectivas que puedan realizar justicia en el Antropoceno.
