SPECIAL ISSUE (2024) Sustainable Legal Infrastructures: Comparative Responses Across Cultures and Systems edited by Lucia Ruggeri, Lécia Vicente and Sara Zuccarino Reframing Legal Pathways to Sustainable Transition: by Riccardo Perona The paper explores the constitutional impact of the shift from the proprietary understanding of nature to the recognition of new legal subjectivities, especially within the context of ‘new constitutionalism’ and the ‘Andean’ perspective. The case of the Cauca River is presented as paradigmatic, as it has been recognized not only as a legal subject, but as victim of the armed conflict in Colombia. Experiences like this confirm the crucial role that can be played by innovative doctrines in the era of ‘transitions’ and offer insights for further legal elaborations also in the European and Italian context.
