Using the voices of displaced women on the Panamá Canal, Betancourt develops a robust ecowomanist moral anthropology based on dignity, relationality, and environmental justice. She takes the early work of ecowomanism to its next stage and invites us to join her in the challenge of stopping the environmental devastation that threatens us all. A compelling new primer for environmental justice.
