From Ecological Thought (1995) to Constitutional Environmental Rights (2005), the unifying theme of TimÕs work is how the values and assumptions of political theory require reassessment in the light of ecological insights.

 

His most recent work continues this theme in the context of international political theory.  He is currently investigating how concerns of environmental justice globally amount to a contest between human rights and rights of private property in natural resources and environmental services. The organising idea of an ecological debt is examined through such cases as carbon emissions and intellectual property rights in genetic resources.
