A Question of Identity: Young Māori Connections to Marae—Do They Matter
Cultural connection, identity and belonging are increasingly shaped by urbanisation, mobility and the conditions of digitally integrated and often mediated life. Maintaining place‐based Indigenous relationships and responsibilities is important especially given the social, cultural or geographic distance between Indigenous people and their ancestral homelands and institutions. In New Zealand, understanding how young Māori consider their homelands…
Intercultural Philosophy and Environmental Justice between Generations: Indigenous, African, Asian, and Western Perspectives
This anthology combines an intercultural approach with intergenerational ethics to address critical environmental challenges. Written by scholars from all over the world, including Canada, the US, New Zealand, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Japan, the UK, China, and Spain, this book offers new perspectives on how to foster sustainable societal practises that draw on the past and are fair to future generations. It introduces the Māori idea that views all thin…
Just transitions as relationship-building
The challenge of climate change has led to (among other things) numerous attempts at developing the groundwork for a 'just transition' – typically understood as a fair, equitable and considered shift to a low-carbon future. This paper contends that just transitions will succeed only if they are defined (at least in part) as building genuine partnerships with Indigenous and/or other local communities. Relationship-building is an essential aspect o…
Special Issue: Climate Justice and the Global Development Crisis
Contribution of Indigenous Peoples' understandings and relational frameworks to invasive alien species management
Introduced species that spread and become invasive are recognised as a major threat to global biological diversity, ecosystem resilience and economic stability. Eradication is often a default conservation management strategy even when it may not be feasible for a variety of reasons. Assessment of the substantive socioeconomic and ecological impacts of invasive alien species (IAS), both negative and positive, is increasingly viewed as an important…
Collective action is needed to build a more just science system
Remaking the Sustainable Development Goals: Relational Indigenous epistemologies
While the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were inclusive in their design, the reliance on official measurement infrastructures has upheld narrow definitions of both the terms of sustainability and development. Indigenous and non-Indigenous “governance beyond the state” approaches call these definitions into question. They highlight that disaggregated official data are unable to fully reflect alternative grounds and aspirations of living sust…
Communities and Climate Change: Why Practices and Practitioners Matter
Communities most vulnerable to the effects of climate change, such as reduced access to material resources and increased exposure to adverse weather conditions, are intimately tied to a considerable amount of cultural and biological diversity on our planet. Much of that diversity is bound up in the social practices of Indigenous groups, which is why these practices have great long-term value. Yet, little attention has been given to them by philos…
Reconciliation, Transitional and Indigenous Justice
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Indigenous Peoples: Another Missed Opportunity
Indicators have emerged as a powerful communication tool for complex phenomena in the shift towards quantitative measurement. Indigenous peoples have not been immune to the representation and monitoring of their lives using indicators. Across many of these standard metrics, they consistently underperform. As a result, resources globally and nationally are often targeted at improving these metrics of indigenous populations. Indigenous peoples have…
Introduction: New paths in reconciliation, transitional and Indigenous justice
The tools we have used to fashion justice have changed greatly over the past seventy years, and the changes have altered our understanding of what justice amounts to. The International Military Tri
Culture and sustainable development: Indigenous contributions
The Sustainable Development Goals (much like the Millennium Development Goals) sideline culture as a dimension of development. This short paper reconsiders the place of culture in sustainable development, and explores what we ought to mean when we say that ‘all cultures and civilizations can contribute to sustainable development’ [UN (United Nations). 2014. “Open Working Group Proposal for Sustainable Development Goals.” http://sustainabledevelop…
Nussbaum's Capability Approach and Future Generations
In her Frontiers of Justice , Nussbaum leaves the problem of future generations to one side, on the back of the assertion that Rawls' theory can be extended to give plausible answers to it. Neither a discussion of the merits of Rawls' solution and how it fits in with her theory, nor of how the inclusion of future generations impacts on her own theory is provided. Following an examination of Rawls' solution to future generations, this article cont…
