We argue that capitalism and the production and reproduction of human life and the Earth-System are incompatible, since the former requires the destruction of the latter. In this context, we wonder if, basing on the logic of capital, which also shapes human rights, it is possible to imagine a truly radical solution to the problem of the ecological and humanitarian crisis. The main goal here would be that we, as researchers and defenders of human rights, begin to rethink the hegemonic theories of law and to formulate creative praxis against the challenges posed by the capitalist system.</p><p><strong>Received</strong><span>: 04 August 2019</span><br /><strong>Accepted</strong><span>: 30 October 2019</span><br /><strong>Published online</strong><span>: 20 December 2019</span></p&gt;}, number={4}, journal={Deusto Journal of Human Rights}, author={Alanís de la Vega, César Eder}, year={2019}, month={Dec.}, pages={227-253} }
