Intergenerational Justice and Climate Change
This meeting intends to analyse how we have to behave and how the institutions should be designed and assessed in intergenerational issues. Intergenerational issues are those which refers, on one hand, to our relations regarding the past and future people, and; on the other hand, to our relations regarding current living people in issues which features cannot be limited by the temporal-space in which such people are living.
Indeed, the meeting focuses on two themes closely related: intergenerational justice and climate change.
At the same time, there will be round-tables in which it will be possible to discuss other issues in the field of law and moral, political and philosophy of law.
