Grassroots movements can pose serious challenges to both
governments and corporations. However, grassroots actors possess a
variety of motivations, and their visions of development may evolve
in complex ways. Meanwhile, their relative powerlessness obliges
them to forge an array of shifting alliances and to devise a range
of adaptive strategies. Grassroots Environmental Governance
presents a compilation of in-depth ethnographic case studies, based
on original research. Each of the chapters focuses specifically on
grassroots engagements with the agents of various forms of
industrial development. The book is geographically diverse,
including analyses of groups based in both the global North and
South, and represents a range of disciplinary perspectives. This
allows the collection to explore themes that cross-cut specific
localities and disciplinary boundaries, and thus to generate
important theoretical insights into the complexities of grassroots
engagements with industry. This volume will be of great interest to
scholars of environmental activism, environmental governance, and
environmental studies in general.
