Thrive | Bronwen Morgan | Legal imagination

We are in the midst of a climate emergency, so it’s about time we wrote a new social contract that will bring our economy into line with what the planet can afford. To create a regenerative economy where humanity can thrive, we are going to need something called legal imagination – the ability to weave rules, entitlements and principles into responsive and creative structures. Think of a world where rivers had human rights, corporations were regulated by their stakeholders, ecocide was a crime, and money looked entirely different. UNSW academic Bronwen Morgan ponders, where can legal imagination take us?
