The Law and Governance of Mining and Minerals: A Global Perspective

This monograph lays out a disciplinary matrix from a global perspective for the law and governance applicable to mining and minerals, taking account of the key challenges of achieving the goals of Agenda 2030 and the transition to low-carbon economies. This perspective encompasses the international, transnational, national, sub-national and local levels of ordering of social relations applicable to mining and minerals. The book engages with current developments on strategic minerals for a carbon-constrained future and it identifies a research agenda for further studies in this fast-changing field.
