摘要

在全球加快自然权法律条款的大背景下，本文重点关注印度最近为恒河和亚穆纳河创造法人资格的法院案件，探讨这种形式的合法性产生的原因和方式。基于人类学的田野调查，文章随后批评了当代的断言，这些断言只是将印度的判决描述为印度教宇宙学渗透到法律框架中，基本上是印度环保主义的“红花化”。更深入的分析揭示了对印度环境法学中产生的法律制定过程和相关法院裁决进行跨学科、基于历史的研究的必要性。

Environmental Law With Non-Human Features in India: Giving Legal Personhood to the Ganges

Against the wider backdrop of a global acceleration of Right of Nature (RoN) legal provisions, this article focuses on recent Indian court cases that created legal personhood for the Ganges and Yamuna rivers, to explore why and how this form of legality was created. Based on anthropological fieldwork, the article then critiques contemporary assertions that simply present the Indian judgments as infiltrations of Hindu cosmology into the legal framework, basically ‘saffronisation’ of Indian environmentalism. Deeper analysis reveals the need for interdisciplinary, historically grounded study of processes of law-making and pertinent court rulings produced in Indian environmental jurisprudence.
