Water justice: Evolving perspectives and dilemmas
This review paper asks: What does the water justice literature reveal about the core elements of water justice in terms of content and at different scalar levels, and what are the key dilemmas? It concludes that, first, despite differing justice perspectives, common ideas emerge (e.g. human right to water, no harm principle) and differing ideas from differing sources contribute to water justice understandings (e.g. priority of use, equitable wate…
Removing the Fantasmatic Blindfold: Enjoyment as a Political Factor in Climate Justice
Progress on climate justice—the fair sharing of climate harms—is at an impasse. In this article, I analyze climate justice as an organizing signifier in ecological politics, relying on the Lacanian psychoanalytic concept of enjoyment ( jouissance ) to explain the (lack of) appeal of climate justice along class lines and thus the ideological limits of its contemporary articulation. Today, the climate justice movement in the Global North is dominat…
Prioritising the purpose: A Water System Justice framework for water utilities
Water utilities provide water, sewerage and sanitation services. Yet, they have failed worldwide to provide safely managed water services to at least 2.2 billion people and safely managed sanitation services to between 3.5 and 4.4 billion. Following 70 years of experience in different modes of water services provision, this paper addresses the question: What lessons can be learnt from the scholarship on the policy and practice of water service pr…
Neo-colonialism and leaving fossil fuels underground: A discourse analysis of the potential German-Senegalese gas partnership
This paper explores the contested discourses surrounding a potential gas partnership between Germany and Senegal, highlighting the implications of neo-colonialism in energy politics. It addresses a gap in the LFFU literature: its limited engagement with critiques that call the Global North's discouragement of fossil fuel use a form of neo-colonialism. Conversely, another critique views developed nations' support for fossil fuel projects in the Gl…
Applying earth system justice to phase out fossil fuels: Learning from the injustice of adopting 1.5 °C over 1 °C
The Paris Agreement has seen the adoption of a 1.5° to 2 °C climate target, based on the belief that climate change becomes ‘dangerous’ above this level. Since then, the scientific community and the countries most affected by global warming have reiterated that the maximum limit to be reached should be 1.5 °C. This paper goes one step further by questioning the reasoning behind the adoption of these targets, arguing that the fossil fuel-dependent…
