Beskrivning
Revised and updated throughout, this unique anthology examines global environmental politics from a range of perspectives and captures the voices of both the powerless and the powerful. Paradigms of sustainability, environmental security, and ecological justice illustrate the many ways environmental challenges and their solutions are framed in contemporary international debates about climate, water, forests, toxics, energy, food, and biodiversity.Organized thematically, the selections offer a truly global scope. Seventeen new readings explore climate justice, globalization, land and water grabs, climate change and conflict, China’s international environmental relations, and the future of climate politics in the wake of the Paris Agreement. This book stresses the underlying questions of power, interests, authority, and legitimacy that shape environmental debates, and it provides readers with a global range of perspectives on the critical challenges facing the planet and its people.This new edition of Green Planet Blues connects directly with a wide-range of upper-level undergraduate and graduate-level courses.

"The updated sixth edition of Green Planet Blues, edited by Conca and Dabelko, is a must-read for students, scholars and policy makers concerned about environmental scarcity and environmental sustainability. The chapters of this volume deal with this important subject in a comprehensive and insightful manner, and in its breadth and depth, this book remains a major contribution." —Ashok Swain, Professor of Peace and Conflict Research & UNESCO Chair of International Water Cooperation, Uppsala University."Green Planet Blues remains the go to anthology for capturing the big theoretical debates and thematic issues in global environmental politics. Important topics covered include climate change, environmental security, sustainability and ecological justice. What makes this volume distinctive is the inclusion of both academic and practitioner voices that inspire as well as remind us of the challenges faced in building institutions and governance mechanisms for the environment." —Erika Weinthal, Lee Hill Snowdon Professor of Environmental Policy, Nicholas School of the Environment, Duke University
