The Routledge Handbook of Political Ecology presents a
comprehensive and authoritative examination of the rapidly growing
field of political ecology. Located at the intersection of
geography, anthropology, sociology, and environmental history,
political ecology is one of the most vibrant and conceptually
diverse fields of inquiry into nature-society relations within the
social sciences. The Handbook serves as an essential guide to this
rapidly evolving intellectual landscape. With contributions from
over 50 leading authors, the Handbook presents a systematic
overview of political ecology's origins, practices and core
concerns, and aims to advance both ongoing and emerging debates.
While there are numerous edited volumes, textbooks, and monographs
under the heading 'political ecology,' these have tended to be
relatively narrow in scope, either as collections of empirically
based (mostly case study) research on a given theme, or broad
overviews of the field aimed at undergraduate audiences. The
Routledge Handbook of Political Ecology is the first systematic,
comprehensive overview of the field. With authors from North and
South America, Europe, Australia and elsewhere, the Handbook of
Political Ecology provides a state of the art examination of
political ecology; addresses ongoing and emerging debates in this
rapidly evolving field; and charts new agendas for research,
policy, and activism. The Routledge Handbook of Political Ecology
introduces political ecology as an interdisciplinary academic
field. By presenting a 'state of the art' examination of the field,
it will serve as an invaluable resource for students and scholars.
It not only critically reviews the key debates in the field, but
develops them. The Handbook will serve as an excellent resource for
graduate and advanced undergraduate teaching, and is a key
reference text for geographers, anthropologists, sociologists,
environmental historians, and others working in and around
political ecology.
