Beskrivning
This book deepens and provides specificity to conversations about what multispecies climate justice might look like, both conceptually and empirically. Bringing together a range of humanities, social sciences, and critical physical sciences scholars who draw on case studies in a variety of geographical settings, each chapter is animated by the politico-ethical impulse to dismantle anthropocentric and liberal ideas of justice and build practices and modes of interspecies solidarity in their place. The book draws substantially on the scholarship in environmental justice and political ecology, alongside materialist, post humanist, Indigenous, and feminist geographies, to assert an understanding of climate change as a multispecies problem, the solutions for which can only be found in decolonial, intersectional, and abolitionist praxis. It is anchored in transdisciplinary approaches to multispecies climate justice to explore what interspecies climate solidarities are — and could be. In doing so, the book offers a diagnosis of the complicated injustices embedded in climate change, encourage and prefigure more just and inclusive scalar imaginaries anchored in multispecies recognition and transformative climate just futures.
