“Because the development of the carbon economy has always been
closely bound up with the deepening of human inequalities, movements
seeking climate justice need to unravel a tangle of social injustices
at all scales. Through viewing the climate crisis from a range of
historical and contemporary angles, Derman elevates the leadership of
the most marginalized communities and nations, and interweaves their
particular experiences with the universal values that bound climate
justice movements together. His work is an effective introduction for
educators and students to the complexities and promises of climate
justice studies.” -Zoltán Grossman, Faculty in Geography and Native
American & Indigenous Studies, The Evergreen State College "Guided
by a five-angle framework that aims to explore the emerging
intersectionalities of space, time, difference, rule, and movement in
climate justice theory and action, the book brings to light new
possibilities and ways of imaging, doing, and transforming climate
justice in a time of planetary urgency." -Peter Little, author
of Critical Zones of Technopower and Global Political Ecology
This book provides an analytical introduction to the complex challenge
of climate change and the equally multi-faceted movement for climate
justice. Its approach is empirically and conceptually rich, while
remaining both accessible and engaging. Each chapter examines the
topic through a different thematic lens, drawing on contemporary and
landmark scholarship, advocacy, and activism across relevant
disciplines and campaigns. These distinct angles build toward a
comprehensive perspective that will equip readers to ably and
critically engage in era-defining policy, political, governance, and
scholarly debates.
