Description

Making Political Ecology presents a comprehensive view of an important new field in human geography and interdisciplinary studies of nature-society relations. This book explores how social and ecological theories are brought together to create a powerful framework for understanding environmental problems.

The author argues that the field of political ecology should be inclusive, incorporating empirical studies from various contexts and theoretical insights from feminism, poststructuralism, neo-Marxism, and non-equilibrium ecology. Excerpts from key figures in the field provide an empirical grounding for abstract theoretical concepts.

By examining the development of political ecology, this book will convince readers of its suitability for grappling with difficult questions concerning social justice, environmental change, and human relationships with nature.
