The 2012 Onati Workshop, ‘Human Rights and the Environment: In Search of a New Relationship’, began to trace outa new, imaginative and paradigm-challenging framework calling on philosophy, legal doctrine, policy, praxis and activism and drawing them together in a coherent, but non-monolithic new socio-juridical approach to the important relationship between human rights and the environment. The workshop was part of the on-going work of the Global Network for the Study of Human Rights and Environment (GNHRE) – the largest existing network of scholars in the world specifically addressing the important nexus between human rights as the dominant global language of ethical claim and the ‘environment’. In short, the GNHRE workshop at Onati developed the on-going efforts of the GNHRE network and its partners to contribute to the important task of re-imagining the human relationship with the living world. We were incredibly fortunate to be awarded an International Workshop by the Onati Institute for the Sociology of Law – and the papers in this collection were, in the main, presented as part of the workshop. The others (by Grear; and by Morrow, Kotze and Grant) were written later, in the light of the conversations and notes taken at the Workshop, and representa weaving together of insights and provocations emerging from the rich discussions taking place in June 2012 in Onati, Spain.
El seminario ‘Derechos Humanos y Medio Ambiente: En busca de una nueva relación’, celebrado en Oñati en 2012, comenzó a trazar un marco nuevo e imaginativo, desafiando paradigmas, y apelando a la filosofía, la doctrina jurídica, la política, la praxis y el activismo, que elaboren juntos un nuevo enfoque socio-jurídico coherente, no monolítico, sobre la importante relación entre los derechos humanos y el medio ambiente. El taller fue parte de la labor puesta en marcha por la Red Mundial para el Estudio de los Derechos Humanos y Medio Ambiente (GNHRE) - la mayor red existente de académicos especializados en el importante nexo que existe entre los derechos humanos como lengua global dominante de reclamación ética y el ‘medio ambiente’. En resumen, el seminario de Oñati desarrolló los esfuerzos en curso de la red GNHRE y sus socios, para contribuir a la importante tarea de re-imaginar la relación humana con el mundo viviente. Fuimos increíblemente afortunados al concedérsenos un taller internacional en el Instituto de Sociología Jurídica de Oñati y los documentos de esta colección fueron presentados en su mayoría como parte del taller. Un par (por Grear, y por Morrow, Kotze y Grant) se escribieron después, a la luz de las conversaciones y notas tomadas en el taller, y representan un tejido de unión de ideas y provocaciones aparecidas en las ricas discusiones que tuvieron lugar en junio de 2012 en Oñati, España.
