Abstract
Abstract In a time of global ecological crisis, some legal scholars are calling for the convergence of law and Earth Systems Governance as a pathway for moving forward. Specifically, the Earth Systems Governance Framework is understood as an approach to steering the co-evolution of human-environment systems. However, as I argue, this path forward may not necessarily be new. Elisabeth Mann Borgese (1918–2002), Nobel Peace Prize nominee and founder of the International Oceans Institute, spent the better part of the past century theorizing, as well as seeking to implement, such ecological relational thinking. In this Reflection, I briefly introduce some of Mann Borgese’s contributions to global ocean governance and the ways in which her thinking speaks to ongoing research in the areas of Earth Systems Governance and Earth Systems Law.
