Resumo

This article examines the concept of multi-species justice from the perspective of the Rights of Nature movement. It argues that this movement offers a unique and valuable contribution to the broader field of environmental justice by challenging the anthropocentric assumptions that underpin traditional legal and political frameworks. The article explores the theoretical foundations of the Rights of Nature movement, drawing on ecocentric and relational ontologies to articulate a vision of justice that recognizes the intrinsic value and legal standing of non-human entities. It also examines the practical implications of this approach, focusing on the ways in which Rights of Nature laws and initiatives are being implemented around the world. The article concludes by suggesting that the Rights of Nature movement offers a powerful and transformative vision of multi-species justice that has the potential to reshape our understanding of the relationship between humans and the natural world.
