This is the audio of me reading an article published by the Transnational Environmental Law Journal, which I co-wrote with two academics from the University of Canterbury, David Jefferson and Elizabeth Macpherson, called “Experiments with the Extension of Legal Personality to Ecosystems and Beyond-Human Organisms: Challenges and Opportunities for Company Law”. Below each place in the audio is indexed.
