The human-environment relationship is one of the most pressing concerns of the twenty-first century. Bringing together a range of global case studies to illustrate the broad range of current theories on this relationship, this book presents significant cutting-edge research into the continuing (re)definition of political ecology as it relates to environmental contestation.
