9781802208948: Handbook of Environmental Political Theory in the Anthropocene

Synopsis

This Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the transforming landscape of environmental political theory. Embracing both classical and marginalised approaches in the field, it demonstrates the central role of political theory in rethinking the strategies, discourses and imaginaries of the Anthropocene epoch.



Expert contributing authors outline how the Anthropocene has triggered the reshaping of academic disciplines, the replacement of conventional categories, the emergence of novel ideas and the engagement with non-Western approaches. They interrogate and question the concept and diagnosis of the Anthropocene, critically evaluating its impact and presenting a range of different viewpoints on its role in socio-political analysis. The Handbook considers the future of the field and identifies challenging new research questions and topics. Ultimately, it examines how environmental political theory can provide hope and resources for political change in the face of a growing ecological crisis.



Presenting cutting-edge analyses, the Handbook of Environmental Political Theory in the Anthropocene is an essential resource for students and scholars of political science, sociology, environmental ethics, public policy and philosophy.
