The Routledge Handbook of Environmental History presents a
cutting-edge overview of the dynamic and ever-expanding field of
environmental history. It addresses recent transformations in the
field and responses to shifting scholarly, political, and
environmental landscapes. The handbook fully and critically engages
with recent exciting changes, contextualizes them within
longer-term shifts in the field, and charts potential new
directions for study. It focuses on five key areas: Theories and
concepts related to changing considerations of social justice,
including postcolonial, antiracist, and feminist approaches, and
the field’s growing emphasis on multiple human voices and
agencies. The roles of non-humans and the more-than-human in the
telling of environmental histories, from animals and plants to
insects as vectors of disease and the influences of water and ice,
the changing theoretical approaches and the influence of concepts
in related areas such as animal and discard studies. How changes in
theories and concepts are shaping methods in environmental history
and shifting approaches to traditional sources like archives and
oral histories as well as experiments by practitioners with new
methods and sources. Responses to a range of current complex
problems, such as climate change, and how environmental historians
can best help mitigate and resolve these problems. Diverse ways in
which environmental historians disseminate their research within
and beyond academia, including new modes of research dissemination,
teaching, and engagements with stakeholders and the policy arena.
This is an important resource for environmental historians,
researchers and students in the related fields of political
ecology, environmental studies, natural resources management and
environmental planning.
