  • Justice on the Seafloor

    Open AccessPetra GümplováARTICLEGerman Law Journal2025

    This Article looks critically at the extension of sovereign rights to natural resources into the ocean commons. It focuses specifically on the continental shelf. I first account for the novelty of the continental shelf claims and the legal regime set by United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Then, I look at the structure, scope, and practice of sovereign rights to natural resources and assess the consequences of their applicati…

  • Normative View of Natural Resources—Global Redistribution or Human Rights–Based Approach

    Open AccessPetra GümplováARTICLEHuman Rights Review2021References: 10

    This paper contrasts conceptions of global distributive justice focused on natural resources with human rights–based approach. To emphasize the advantages of the latter, the paper analyzes three areas: (1) the methodology of normative theorizing about natural resources, (2) the category of natural resources, and (3) the view of the system of sovereignty over natural resources. Concerning the first, I argue that global justice conceptions misconst…

  • Popular sovereignty over natural resources

    Open AccessPetra GümplováARTICLEGlobal Constitutionalism2018Cited by: 3References: 11

    The article discusses the concept of popular sovereignty over natural resources and its possible applicability to a broader account of natural resource justice based on a moral interpretation of international law. Leif Wenar’s recent proposal to entrench popular resource sovereignty as a counterclaim to illegitimate uses of natural resources by corrupt and authoritarian regimes serves as the starting point for the discussion of the possible meani…

  • Sovereignty and Constitutional Democracy

    Petra GümplováBOOKSovereignty and Constitutional…2011

    The goal of this thesis is to rearticulate the discourse of sovereignty in political theory and to outline a model of sovereignty compatible with premises and institutions of constitutional democracy. The underlying assumption of my project is that sovereignty is an indispensable feature of modern political order and that tendencies to move beyond sovereignty are based on the misunderstanding of the concept. Inspired by Habermas's theory, my reco…
