Place in legal geography: Agency and application in agriculture research
Systemic failure of our land management, legal, and regulatory institutions is revealed by the serious and adverse social and environmental impacts of land use practices in private agriculture, evident in severe land and water degradation, precipitous decline in biodiversity, and reduced resilience to natural hazards and climate change. The efficacy of the standard treatment of environmental law and regulation is often hampered by the cultural an…
Teaching Private Law in a Climate Crisis
First Nations analyses, climate science, social science and legal research indicate the significant role of private law in facilitating the conditions of climate change. Private law is a contingent feature of planetary health because its key concepts and institutions concentrate the legal rights to capital — the goods of life — in the private sphere. Private entitlements can act as shields against collective interests. Reforming law to address th…
Legal pluralisms, justice and spatial conflicts: New directions in legal geography
Critical legal pluralism acknowledges both the multiple sources and forms of law, and their dynamic interaction, within singular geographical spaces at whatever scales they are defined. Challenging conventional constructs of law and jurisdiction, the articles in this themed section draw on the ideas of legal pluralism, justice and spatial conflict to explore the experience, interaction, impact and possibilities of the plurality of laws in particu…
Property and Environment
Property is one of the most important regulatory mechanisms of human societies because it controls the use, distribution, and disposal of environmental resources and processes on which they depend. Property regimes vary across time, space, and culture but their common and foundational conditions and effects are environmental. Private property, however, is concerned primarily with human relationships through which the environment is externalized a…
Farmscapes: Property, ecological restoration and the reconciliation of human and nature in Australian agriculture
Reconceiving the relationship between private property and the environment is a major challenge of our time. Ecological restoration is one construct that is being used to reimagine this relationship. While preferable to more exploitative human-nature relationships, ecological restoration in Australia is generally aimed at reinstating pre-1788 habitats, which may be neither desirable nor feasible, and perpetuates an anthroparchic approach to manag…
Broadening law’s context: Materiality in socio-legal research
SYNOPSISSocio-legal studies is a ‘heterogeneous field’11 Faulkner et al. (2012), p 6. that encompasses a broad range of topics. Indeed, recently, legal scholars who regard their work as socio-legal have accepted the inclusion of less obvious and less conventional contexts and sites of socio-legal research including specifically science, technology and the environment on the basis that ‘materiality also matters in socio-legal studies’.22 Faulkner …
Property and place attachment: A legal geographical analysis of biodiversity law reform in New South Wales
Environmental indicators suggest that the legislation regulating land clearing inNSWshould be strengthened. However, reform has moved in the opposite direction, continuously weakening the law in response to the marginal but politically significant argument that the Act undermined sacrosanct private property rights. The cultural mythology around property and the legal discourse of property dephysicalise relations between people and place, transfor…
Special issue: Legal Geography/Ies
The nine articles comprising this special issue of Geographical Research bring together a diverse range of scholarship by Australian legal geographers and combine the products of two initiatives: an innovative workshop at the University of New England and the Inaugural Australian Legal Geography Symposium at the University of Technology Sydney (with thanks to the generous support of the Institute of Australian Geographers, the University of New E…
Missing the Connection: How SRLU Policy Fragments Landscapes and Communities in NSW
In late 2010, the Environmental Defenders Office ('EDO') released a report on the state of planning law in NSW. It suggested that detailed analysis 'revealed a failure of the current system to balance social and environmental considerations against the Government's desired economic and statistical outcomes.' In 2012, responding to widespread community opposition to coal seam gas ('CSG') mining in rural and regional NSW, the O'Farrell government d…
Legal Geography: An Australian Perspective
Law is a powerful influence on people and place. Law both creates and is created by the relationship between people and place, although it rarely acknowledges this. Law frequently operates as if space does not matter. Law and legal processes, therefore, deserve greater attention from geographers. Legal geography is an emerging field of inquiry that facilitates much-needed attention to the interrelationships among the environment, people and socia…
The Influence of Predictors on Adolescent Drug Use: An Examination of Individual Effects
The findings of t tests on an adolescent sample in Charleston, South Carolina, indicated that, without adjustments, Whites were significantly higher than Blacks on socioeconomic status, cumulative grade point average, and drug modeling/attitudes favoring drug-use variables. Blacks were significantly higher on positive peer influence, commitment to education, belief in rules, self-efficacy expectations, parental supervision, and official reported …
Grade Retention and Problem Behavior
This study explores the causal nature of the well established association between grade retention and later adolescent problem behaviors including delinquency, drug use, and dropout. It uses multiple regression to examine retention effects on theoretical variables which might link retention to problem behavior in a sample of mostly African-American sixth and seventh graders intivo urban middle schools. The study compares the retained (n = 197) to…
