Since the 2008 financial crash the expansion of neoliberalism has
had an enormous impact on nature-society relations around the
world. In response, various environmental movements have emerged
opposing the neoliberal restructuring of environmental policies
using arguments that often bridge traditional divisions between the
environmental and labour agendas. The Right to Nature explores the
differing experiences of a number of environmental-social movements
and struggles from the point of view of both activists and
academics. This collection attempts to both document the
social-ecological impacts of neoliberal attempts to exploit
non-human nature in the post-crisis context and to analyse the
opposition of emerging environmental movements and their demands
for a radically different production of nature based on social
needs and environmental justice. It also provides a necessary space
for the exchange of ideas and experiences between academics and
activists and aims to motivate further academic-activist
collaborations around alternative and counter-hegemonic re-thinking
of environmental politics. This book will be of great interest to
students, scholars and activists interested in environmental
policy, environmental justice, social and environmental movements.
