The transition from the current fossil fuel-based economy toward one that relies on renewable sources of energy allegedly will require a set minerals for manufacturing batteries store this and power electric devices. Deep seabed mining (DSM) is an economic activity has potential to fill these material requirements as it collecting rich mineral resources bottom ocean. This brings enormous challenges regulation potentially irreversible impacts large scale. In addition, considered common heritage humankind, therefore, questions distributions burdens profits also emerge. We build premise social justice, legitimacy, participatory processes discuss six perspectives should be while dealing with DSM. claim DSM seen through wicked problem lens, acknowledging limits ignorance squared, inside scientific paradigm open possibility post-normal science. Participation center recognizing plural rationalities, ensuring justice capabilities, actively including global South. conclude DSM's legitimacy can enhanced by following perspective guidelines.
