Description:This textbook introduces the key tools, conversations and traditions that have shaped political ecology as an interdisciplinary field of environmental research. It responds to the concerns of a new generation of students who are globally literate and articulating demands to decolonise university curricula.The text explores key questions posed both by these students and by political ecologists while providing conceptual tools with which to address these issues. Furthermore, the text will introduce political ecological practice focused on some of the most pressing concerns today: water, energy, agriculture, forestry and the virtual. Discovering Political Ecology begins by introducing the broad areas of concern that have emerged when bringing together the words "politics" and "ecology". The authors then consider the many different human subjects with whom the field has concerned itself, how the notion of a distinctly human subject is being challenged today and how people are embroiled in a series of power relations, producing differing scales and "natures".In this textbook, Cederl�f and Loftus take up the challenge of narrating a tale that is more open to political ecology's diverse roots and do so in a way that opens political ecology up to a new generation of students, while being honest to - and about - the field. This textbook will be an essential resource for undergraduates and postgraduates in geography and allied fields, such as environmental studies, natural resources, anthropology and development studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
