Calls for climate justice abound as evidence accumulates of the growing social and environmental injustices aggravated or driven by climate change. There is now a considerable and diverse literature on procedural, distributional and intergenerational dimensions, including questions of recognition in climate justice. Yet its meaning, scope and practical implications are still contested. Importantly, the broader landscape within which climate justice is situated is rapidly changing, bringing new challenges to the understanding and practice of climate justice. This review takes stock of climate justice literature in view of this new context. We find several disconnects and tensions between more philosophical and academic treatments of the subject on the one hand, and “activist”-oriented approaches to climate justice on the other. Scholarship often falls into silos around scales from global and local, between mitigation and adaptation or draws distinctions between climate justice and other forms of (in)justice. This inhibits an understanding of climate justice that can address more directly its underlying root causes in an historically constituted global economic system and intersecting set of social inequalities. We propose a research agenda centered on a transformative approach to climate justice, placing analysis of power in its various guises at the center of its enquiry, and subverting and moving beyond existing distinctions by focusing on the social and institutional relations and inequalities that both produce climate change and profoundly shape responses to it. We elaborate on three key strands of such an approach: inclusive climate justice, deepening climate justice and governance for climate justice.

迈向变革性气候正义:一项新兴的研究议程

随着气候变化加剧或推动日益严重的社会和环境不公正现象的证据不断积累,对气候正义的呼声比比皆是。现在有大量关于程序、分配和代际层面的文献,包括气候正义中的承认问题。然而,它的意义、范围和实际意义仍然存在争议。重要的是,气候正义所处的广阔格局正在迅速变化,给气候正义的理解和实践带来了新的挑战。鉴于这种新背景,本评论对气候正义文献进行了盘点。我们发现一方面对该主题的更多哲学和学术处理与另一方面以“激进主义”为导向的气候正义方法之间存在一些脱节和紧张关系。学术研究经常陷入全球和地方尺度、缓解和适应之间的孤岛,或者区分气候正义和其他形式的(不)正义。这阻碍了对气候正义的理解,而气候正义可以更直接地解决其在历史构成的全球经济体系和一系列交叉的社会不平等中的根本原因。我们提出了一个以气候正义变革方法为中心的研究议程,将各种形式的权力分析置于其调查的中心,并通过关注产生气候的社会和制度关系以及不平等来颠覆和超越现有的区别。改变并深刻地塑造对它的反应。我们详细阐述了这种方法的三个关键部分:包​​容性气候正义、
