Progetto: Giustizia climatica e intersezionalità: dall’adattamento alla trasformazione
Climate justice examines the responsibilities and impacts of climate change through a justice framework, incorporating distributive, procedural, recognitional, and corrective justice. It intersects with concepts like social inequality, vulnerability, and resilience. This report thus first traces the evolution of inequality studies in relation to climate justice, highlighting how the uneven and asymmetric access to and distribution of resources reflect the core principles of climate (in)justice. It also offers a systematic review of the most prominent definitions of climate justice in scientific literature, followed by a critical analysis of its implications for climate change research. In particular, it includes a diagnosis of concepts and debates closely related to climate justice that have often been treated separately, fostering cross-fertilization and cross-disciplinary dialogues that bridge different perspectives. Finally, it highlights the need for climate research and policy to consider the diverse nature of societies and how different groups and communities access services and processes. It ultimately calls for significant societal changes that address current power structures.
