Ecological crises have never been higher on the international political agenda. However, ecological thought and international relations theory have developed as separate disciplines. This ground-breaking study looks at the relationship between ecological thought and international relations theory arguing that there are shared concerns: peace, co-operation and security. The authors ask what ecological crisis can teach IR theorists as well as what ecological perspectives have been adopted by governments and international NGOs.

Whales: large, mysterious, intelligent – and endangered. In 1986, a global moratorium on whaling was issued by the International Whaling Commission. However, that decision was not without controversy. Some countries, such as Norway, continue to whale in defiance of the ban. In this fascinating book, Peter Stoett combines ecological sensitivity with a hard assessment of the political realities of the international regime to examine this important issue.The International Politics of Whaling examines contemporary whaling issues with an emphasis on three factors: our knowledge of whales and current whale populations and the impact of whaling; the actors and institutions involved in the debate over whaling; and the ethical dimension. Reluctantly, he concludes that the current global moratorium on whaling is problematic and that we must focus instead on habitat preservation in order to protect whales more effectively.

The global community's ability to deal effectively withenvironmental problems is contingent on the successful integration ofinternational relations theory with ecological thought. Yet, while mostscholars and policymakers recognize the connection between these twointerrelated branches of study, no substantial dialogue exists betweenthem. This volume seeks to fill the lacuna with an originalsynthesis.International Ecopolitical Theory assembles some of the topthinkers in the field to provide an invaluable overview of the maincritical strands of theory in global environmental politics. By framingthe environmental question within a historical and philosophicalcontext, it highlights problems inherent in economistic and managerialapproaches to sustainable development policy.Emphasizing environmental consciousness as a cultural norm in anevolving set of global relations, it tackles important debates onnaturalism, foundationalism, and radical ecology. Ultimately, it makesa convincing case for the necessity of a critical internationalrelations theory duly informed by the paradoxes of ecologicalgovernance. With contributions from experts in political science,philosophy, ecology, history, geography, and systems theory, thiscollection will have an impact across many disciplines.
