Documentary abstract — original language

This chapter troubles the boundaries of justice theory. Thinking with sand, it considers sand not as a thing but rather as a set of complex and life-affirming relationships. Using frameworks of multispecies justice, the chapter challenges the treatment of sand as an inert, infinitely exploitable resource. Using a relational lens informed by Māori and Western traditions, it explores sand’s ecological roles, cultural significance, and vulnerabilities to anthropogenic harm. The chapter critiques extractivist ideologies that erase sand’s life-enabling capacities and highlights its entanglement with a web of beings—human and more-than-human—across time and space. Sand is shown to shape and be shaped by justice claims, rights discourses, and responsibilities in legal and customary systems. By foregrounding sand’s agency, it argues for extending ethical and political consideration to materials conventionally excluded from the moral community. The chapter concludes by advocating for attention to sand’s liveliness and centrality in sustaining relational worlds.
