    About this ebook

    Destined to transform its field, this volume features some of the most exciting feminist scholars and activists working within feminist political ecology, including Giovanna Di Chiro, Dianne Rocheleau, Catherine Walsh and Christa Wichterich. Offering a collective critique of the ‘green economy’, it features the latest analyses of the post-Rio+20 debates alongside a nuanced reading of the impact of the current ecological and economic crises on women as well as their communities and ecologies.

    This new, politically timely and engaging text puts feminist political ecology back on the map.

      The premise of this book seems to combat an inaccessible academia but is very much a dense academic work. The chapters are interesting but have the fault of being long-winded and ideologically repetitive. This book ventures into the praxis of feminist political ecologies and relies heavily on anecdotal evidence seeking to invite the embodied experience of women into the realm of academia.

      Overall, its an extensive look into its respective field, but one that I find monotonous.
