Wild Law fuses politics, legal theory, quantum physics and ancient wisdom into a fascinating story. It has been seminal in informing and inspiring the global movement to recognise rights for Nature.

Presents a beautiful vision of how we could change our structures and order to give us a new role on Earth - one that will protect the natural world, rather than destroy it.

We are rapidly destroying our only habitat, Earth. It is becoming clear that many of the treaties, laws and policies concluded in recent years have failed to slow down, let alone halt or reverse, this process. The concept of introducing a wild law has been seminal in informing and inspiring the global movement to recognise rights for Nature – a movement destined to shape the twenty-first century as significantly as the human rights movements shaped the twentieth century.

Written by environmental attorney, Cormac Cullinan, Wild Law outlines an Earth-centred approach to re-ordering human societies (Earth jurisprudence). It is a manifest on how we can conserve biological and cultural diversity, animal rights and welfare, and green spirituality by rediscovering a role for our species within the Earth community. After all, we have no future without our wonderful planet.

Fusing together politics, legal theory, quantum physics and ancient wisdom into a fascinating and hopeful story, Wild Law reveals how the governance systems of today legitimise and promote the disastrous exploitation and destruction of Earth. Cormac explains how to begin transforming our systems to ensure that the pursuit of human well-being enhances the beauty, health and diversity of Earth instead of diminishing it.

Wild Law is an inspiring and stimulating book for anyone who cares about Earth and is concerned about the direction in which the human species is moving.
