Description

Disability, the Environment, and Colonialism explores how the legacy of Western colonialism continues to shape our world today. Through a critical analysis of the intersection of disability, environment, and colonialism, this collection sheds light on issues such as eco-ableism, environmental degradation, and climate change.

The contributors examine the body as a site of colonial oppression and environmental exploitation, highlighting the need for a more nuanced understanding of these interconnected topics. By drawing on literary and media examples from Western colonialism and Anglophone writings, this book provides a valuable framework for addressing the ongoing impacts of colonialism on our planet.
