N2 - The transition towards low-carbon societies is creating winners and losers, raising new questions of justice. Around the world, litigation increasingly articulates these justice questions, challenging laws, projects and policies aimed at delivering climate change adaptation and/or mitigation. In this Perspective, we define and conceptualise the phenomenon of 'just transition litigation.' This concept provides a new frame to identify and understand the diverse justice claims of those affected by climate action. We set out a research agenda to further investigate this phenomenon, with a view to enhancing societal acceptance and support for the transition.
