Normandy Chair for Peace Collection


Normandy Peace Chair Collection

The aim of this collection is to promote the work carried out by the Normandy Chair for Peace, which conducts research on the rights of future generations and peace with the Earth. Resolutely open to the international scene and committed to multidisciplinarity, the Normandy Chair for Peace will publish here the works it has coordinated in fields as varied as :

  • Process of change in fundamental rights and legal systems
  • Good Stories
  • Climate justice and international jurisdictions
  • Indigenous Peoples’ Rights and the Renewal of the Law through the Lens of Indigenous Knowledge
  • Education for the rights and duties of future generations
  • Environmental ethics for lawyers
  • Bioethics/Biological rights
  • Transitional justice and environmental peace building
  • Legal indicators of the SDGs
  • Economics and law of conservation, protection and restoration of nature
  • Representation and Defence of future generations

This collection aspires to be coherent in order to weave together the various transformations currently underway in international, regional and national legal systems in order to establish a sustainable protection of the environment, environmental rights and the future. The collection also explores the protection of the future human condition as well as the bio-ethical issues that constantly renew the legitimate fields of law.

Drawing from the immemorial wisdom of Humanity, this collection intends to promote all types of works illustrating the civilization imperative according to which: “We will have peace on Earth when we live in Peace with the Earth”.
