Dr Roger Merino is an Associate Professor at the Graduate School’s Department of Management at the Universidad del Pacífico in Lima, Peru, where he teaches and researches environmental governance, political ecology, sustainable development, and human rights. Grounded in empirical findings and political claims regarding the sustainable development of the Amazon region, Roger’s latest book seeks to addresses a central question: Can we imagine international platforms in which States’ representatives, Indigenous peoples, and natural beings participate in decision-making processes related to the protection of international commons? It critically engages the polycentric international governance of the Amazon rainforest and offers a new model of plurinational and pluriversal international governance that will help us reimagine the democratic governance of international commons in other parts of the world.
