Paolo Grossi and the environment

The French-language Revue interdisciplinaire d’études juridiques published two articles last year on the relevance of leading Italian legal historian Paolo Grossi's work to environmental issues. 

Paolo Grossi, 2016 (Quirinale.it)
The abstract of the first, by Alessia Tanas and Serge Gutwirth, "Le pluralisme juridique retrouvé au temps des désordres écologiques. Penser la relation entre le droit et les communs de la terre avec Paolo Grossi" (Legal pluralism at times of ecological disorders: thinking the relationship between landed commons and the law with Paolo Grossi):

In this contribution, the authors introduce a few key aspects of Paolo Grossi’s research path and link them to their work on the legal questions raised by landed-commons and local ecologies.

There follows a contribution by Grossi himself, "Une autre façon de posséder. Réflexions historico/juridiques sur les aménagements fonciers en Italie" (An alternative to private property. Reflections on land set-ups in Italy from a legal history perspective):

In his contribution Paolo Grossi provides his viewpoint as a legal historian on collective land set-ups in Italy and shows how, through constitutional jurisprudence and the adoption of Law n° 168 of 20 November 2017, the Italian legal order not only recognizes their legal autonomy but also recovers its pluralism and complexity. Such recognition benefits to the protection of the environment.
