Environmental Justice: Key Issues

is the first textbook to offer a comprehensive and accessible overview of environmental justice, one of the most dynamic fields in environmental politics scholarship.

The rapidly growing body of research in this area has brought about a proliferation of approaches; as such, the breadth and depth of the field can sometimes be a barrier for aspiring environmental justice students and scholars. This book therefore is unique for its accessible style and innovative approach to exploring environmental justice. Written by leading international experts from a variety of professional, geographic, ethnic, and disciplinary backgrounds, its chapters combine authoritative commentary with real-life cases. Organised into four parts—approaches, issues, actors and future directions—the chapters help the reader to understand the foundations of the field, including the principal concepts, debates, and historical milestones. This volume also features sections with learning outcomes, follow-up questions, references for further reading and vivid photographs to make it a useful teaching and learning tool.

Environmental Justice: Key Issues

is the ideal toolkit for junior researchers, graduate students, upper-level undergraduates, and anyone in need of a comprehensive introductory textbook on environmental justice.

Recenzijos

"Impressive in its disciplinary, geographical, and topical breadth, Environmental Justice: Key Issues examines the many meanings of justice inherent to the field. Written as an introductory text, it manages to present scholarship that is simultaneously accessible and cutting-edge. A tremendous contribution for all teachers and students of environmental justice." Professor Laura Pulido, Indigenous, Race, and Ethnic Studies Department, University of Oregon

"This is an excellent collection of writing about the foundations, diversity and future of environmental justice, as both a site of activism and academic research. The range of authors is particularly impressive, spanning multiple disciplines, perspectives and contexts. For those studying environmental justice there is much in here that will inform and inspire." Professor Gordon Walker, Lancaster Environment Centre, Lancaster University

"Over the last decades, the study of environmental justice has become one of the most prominent fields in global sustainability governance. This timely new volume, carefully edited by Brendan Coolsaet, now brings together the Whos Who of environmental justice scholarship for one of the first comprehensive reviews of all key issues at stake, covering the main concepts and issues and charting new research directions. The book is highly recommended for use in the classroom but also provides new insights and reflections for scholars and practitioners." Frank Biermann, Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development, Utrecht University
