Although many scholars have analyzed the emergence of environmental security agendas within state agencies and intergovernmental organizations, greater understanding of how environmental security debates traverse transnational, non-state politics is needed to provide a fuller view of environmental security as a globally contested concept. Therefore, this paper examines how transnational corporations (TNCs) leverage and generate ideas about environmental security on a cross-border scale. Specifically, I explore the ways three TNCs —BP, Nutrien, and Veolia—turn to environmental security as a source of legitimacy in their broader global environmental governance agendas. I find that these TNCs rely on particular notions of environmental security to validate their roles in filling governance gaps, promoting democratic principles, and mitigating planetary crisis, particularly to appease a primarily Western, elite audience. Ultimately, I reveal how environmental security concepts inform non-state legitimacy claims and advocate for a political economic perspective for understanding the wider implications of environmental security as a power-laden concept.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":33685,"journal":{"name":"Earth System Governance","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100133"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589811622000027/pdfft?md5=cb2cac4a715524216c2aa1fee7678ff0&pid=1-s2.0-S2589811622000027-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46212511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We advance a new typology for understanding various combinations of democratic/authoritarian practices and of transformations towards/away from sustainability. We then explore the role of democratic practices in accelerating or obstructing five key dimensions of sustainability transformations: institutional, social, economic, technological, and epistemic. Across all dimensions we find substantial evidence that democratic practices can foster transformations towards sustainability, and we conclude by outlining a set of associated policy recommendations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":33685,"journal":{"name":"Earth System Governance","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100131"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589811621000355/pdfft?md5=5c5b097910ffc28ba2ae7f770aae2908&pid=1-s2.0-S2589811621000355-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42721853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we assess a range of views on planetary justice and present three arguments associated with why social scientists should engage with the scholarship on safe targets.

Using the 2019 communication of sixteen children to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child as a case study, it highlights the opportunities and shortcomings of the communication procedure in advancing intergenerational justice, specifically related to democratic legitimacy, recognition and representation, accessibility, and impact.

In this article, we articulate the potential for Earth system law to account for core hydrological problems that complicate water governance, including delay, redistribution, intertwinements, permanence, and scale. Through merging concepts from Earth system law with existing policy and legal principles, we frame an approach for addressing hydrological problems in the Anthropocene and strengthening institutional fit between established governance systems and the global hydrological cycle.
