Terrestrial Transformations - A Political Ecology Approach to Society and Nature (Hardcover)

Humanity's future may rest on how we deal with climate change, environmental problems, and their impacts on society. Terrestrial Transformations: A Political Ecology Approach to Society and Nature recognizes that such problems have social, political, and cultural contexts, and that politics, money, and power have physical impacts on nature and society that cannot be ignored. This book brings together a set of authors whose chapters provide an overview of the political ecology approach, illustrating its theoretical underpinnings, central concepts, methods, and major interests. The chapters in this collection examine the political contexts of a broad range of environmental and social problems, drawing attention to the political and economic forces driving environmental and ecological problems, how societies are transformed as they attempt to cope and adapt to a changing nature, and who pays the price.
