N2  - "This book explores a disciplinary matrix for the study of the law and governance concerning mining and minerals from a global perspective. The book considers the key challenges of achieving the goals of Agenda 2030 and the transition to low-carbon economies and the circular economy. The perspective encompasses the multi-faceted and highly complex interaction of multiple fields of international law and policy, soft law and standards, domestic laws and regulations as well as local levels of ordering of social relations. What emerges is a largely neglected, unsystematised and under theorised field of study which lies at the intersection of the global economy, environmental sustainability, human rights and social equity. But it also underlies the many loopholes to address at the local level - land and land holders, artisanal miners, ecosystems, local economies, local linkages and development - which are structurally absent from decision-making processes. The book identifies challenges to building a truly cosmopolitan academic discipline and identifies a research agenda for further studies in this fast-changing field"--
