Key Issues
«
"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 Who’s 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
