Justice, Society and Nature - An Exploration of Political Ecology (Hardcover)

Justice, Society and Nature traces the idea of the philosphy of justice, as it applies to environmental issues. Philosophical ideas are treated in a straightforward and easily understandable way with reference to practical examples.
The authors explore the issues of environment and development, fair treatment of humans and non-humans, and the justice of the social and economic systems which affect the health and safety of the peoples of the world. Current grass-roots concerns such as the environmental justice movement in the USA, and the ethics of the international regulation of development are examined in depth.

This book takes debates beyond mere complaint about the injustice of the world economy, and suggests what should now be done to do justice to nature.
