This article introduces a temporal approach to law as potentially innovative for socio-legal studies. It argues that bringing a focus on time into legal thought and practice is an important move for decentering the individual subject as conventionally conceived and for developing legal tools capable of recognising networks, ties and assemblages, and challenging the anthropocentric character of modern law. It frames climate change and the ecological crisis as a context for rethinking a number of fundamental legal forms, such as property and contract, as ways in which modern law can deal simultaneously with different temporalities – the present, an intergenerational time and a planetary time.
