Green Criminology and Green Theories of Justice : An Introduction to a Political Economic View of Eco-Justice Hardback
by Michael J. Lynch, Michael A. Long, Paul B. Stretesky
Part of the Palgrave Studies in Green Criminology series
Hardback
Description
This book offers an alternative analysis of the various theories and dimensions of green and environmental justice which are rooted in political economy.
Much green criminological literature sidelines political economic theoretical insights and therefore with this work the authors enrich the field by vigorously exploring such perspectives.
It engages with a number of studies relevant to a political economic approach to justice in order to make two key arguments: that capitalism has produced profound ecological injustices and that the concept of ecological justice (human and ecological rights) itself needs critiquing.
Green Criminology and Green Theories of Justice is a timely text which urges the field to revisit its radical roots in social justice while broadening its disciplinary horizons to include a meaningful analysis of political economy and its role in producing and responding to environmental harm andinjustice.
