Without environmental justice, there can be no social justice. The
critical symptoms of human suffering, climate collapse and animal
maltreatment are now global and far-reaching. Despite their
interdependence, the treatment of these afflictions remains
disconnected. What follows is policy and design decisions that fail
to tackle the problems collectively. Exposing the narrow
perspectives that dominate architectural discourse and practice,
this volume sets the table for inclusive architectural engagement
during a time circumscribed by pandemic, climate change and
inequality. An respected group of international voices amplifies
interactions relating to sexism, racism, classism, homophobia,
transphobia and environmental catastrophe, exploring how they are
inextricably linked. Without acknowledging the interconnectedness
of these injustices, we will not find effective ways to halt the
deepening crisis. Or be able to experience an architecture that
addresses the effects of the human-centred Anthropocene age.
Readers are invited to imagine, rage, rail, protest, contest,
channel, dream and envision from a position of humility, equity,
and in some instances, experiential fury. The future of
architecture is contingent on working at the intersection.
