Climate Litigation: the Role of Science and Epistemic Networks

Climate Litigation: the Role of Science and Epistemic Networks Climate court cases have made domestic and international judges central actors in climate policy. The courtroom is also an arena where scientific knowledge is brought to bear. In this process epistemic networks play a central role. Epistemic communities are networks of experts who enjoy social authority, and who attempt — and sometimes succeed in — shaping laws, policies, and practices at national and international levels, including through the court cases that have burgeoned worldwide. Scientists help shape litigation, supporting lawyers and NGOs in understanding and mobilizing science for climate justice. In this roundtable we will discuss how epistemic networks of knowledge work to bring about action when addressing the unequal burden of climate change between and within societies, as well as on the youth and future generations. When are these networks effective, and which knowledge-keepers and forms of knowledge are included? Can epistemic communities help modify the “present bias” of law — the privileging of present generations’ interests over those of future generations? This event is a collaboration with the Centre for Climate and Energy Transformaton (CET) and Selskapet til Vitenskapenes Fremme (SFV).
