Has the hype associated with the "revolutionary" potential of the
World Wide Web and digital media for environmental activism been
muted by the past two decades of lived experience? What are the
empirical realities of the prevailing media landscape? Using a
range of related disciplinary perspectives, the contributors to
this book analyze and explain the complicated relationship between
environmental conflict and the media. They shine light on why media
are central to historical and contemporary conceptions of power and
politics in the context of local, national and global issues and
outline the emerging mixture of innovation and reliance on
established strategies in environmental campaigns. With cases drawn
from different sections of the globe - Australia, the United
Kingdom, the United States, Europe, Latin America, China, Japan,
the Pacific Islands, Africa - the book demonstrates how conflicts
emanate from and flow across multiple sites, regions and media
platforms and examines the role of the media in helping to
structure collective discussion, debate and decision-making.
