Taking responsibility for clothing circularity
This article examines how product stewardship (PS) and extended producer responsibility (EPR) schemes are being deployed around the world to promote a circular economy transition for fashion and textiles. A desktop analysis of initiatives in twelve jurisdictions across four continents was undertaken, and the lens of regulatory theory was used to categorize initiatives. The majority of PS initiatives are voluntary in nature and have a general bias…
Sharing Responsibility for Disaster Justice
In February 2022, millions of Australians were glued to their televisions and social media watching rolling footage of flooding in South-East Queensland and Northern New South Wales. When the rain finally ceased and the flood water subsided, residents were left to contend with damage estimated to exceed A$4.8 billion and an aftermath that extends to the present day (Insurance Council of Australia, 2022). With climate change accelerating, climate …
Conceptualizing the Transnational Regulation of Plastics
This article categorizes and evaluates how regulatory regimes conceptualize plastics, and how such conceptualizations affect the production, consumption, and disposal of plastics. Taking a doctrinal and policy-oriented approach, it identifies four 'frames' - that is, four distinct and coherent sets of meanings attributed to plastics within transnational regulation - namely, plastics as waste to be managed; a material to be prevented; a good (or w…
Women, human rights and the global climate regime
It is now well understood that climate change represents a threat to the enjoyment of a wide range of human rights. Given that women are vulnerable to the effects of climate change due to a range of social, economic, cultural and political factors that influence their position in society, their human rights may be especially at risk. Despite the growing recognition of climate change as a human rights issue, the recently adopted Paris Agreement co…
Protection of Refugees and Displaced Persons in the Asia Pacific Region
This paper explores regional responsibility sharing arrangements for refugees. Under these arrangements, countries within or reacting to developments in a particular region may agree to take up distinct roles with respect to the protection of refugees. Examples of these roles include ‘processing’ claims or determining who is and who is not a refugee; offering temporary refuge while a ‘durable solution’ is found for the refugee; resettling refugee…
Environmental Crime and Specialist Courts
The increasing international political, public and scientific engagement in matters of environmental sustainability and development has produced a rapidly expanding body of environmental law and policy. The advent of international protocols, directives, and multilateral agreements has occurred concomitantly with the harmonisation of widespread environmental regimes of governance and enforcement within numerous domestic settings. This has created …
Pro Bono Partnerships in Environmental Law
CLE can be a life-changing event in a law student’s education. It can open their eyes to the day-to-day operation of justice and provide them with examples of possible career paths they may never have thought existed. Yet it can also provide long-term benefits for CLCs and academics. Recent CLE models have moved towards partnerships with external organisations and away from on-site legal clinics. Some examples have exhibited success with a multid…
