In recent years, the concept of resistance has come to play a significant role in public discourse. This is reflected in the rise of progressive social movements seeking to challenge the dominant order by fighting race- and gender-based injustice, dismantling structures of epistemic and educational hegemony, and holding powerful political and corporate actors to account. At the same time, new research in philosophy and neighboring disciplines has moved beyond cataloguing and characterising forms of oppression to highlighting the practices of resistance that marginalized and oppressed groups engage in. This volume propels that work forward by articulating a philosophical vocabulary and grammar of resistance. It uses case studies to frame a bottom-up, activist-centered, and multidisciplinary approach to resistance. In doing so, the essays in this volume create new frameworks to explore and engage with the ways that resistance can play a crucial role in our social lives and political futures.

Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Forward-looking and innovative, Elgar Research Agendas are an essential resource for PhD students, scholars and anybody who wants to be at the forefront of research.This important book creatively explores and uncovers new ways of understanding the intersections between human rights and the environment, as well as introducing readers to the ways in which we can use new methodologies, case studies and approaches in human rights to address environmental issues.Interdisciplinary in nature, this Research Agenda recognises and engages with the short-comings and problematic framings of traditional approaches to human rights and environmental law. Keeping these limits and failings unflinchingly in view, it identifies potential opportunities to maximise the law’s effectiveness, providing readers with a thought-provoking agenda for future research. Contributions also call for resistant, transformative and inclusive research and practice in the area of human rights and the environment, using human rights law to center the knowledge, practices, laws and priorities of marginalised groups in addressing environmental injustice.This dynamic Research Agenda will be an essential tool for PhD students and scholars in international law, environmental law and human rights, as well as providing a springboard for geographers and anthropologists to further their knowledge of the evolving interface between human rights and the environment.
