Discovering Political Ecology by Gustav Cederlf

Discovering Political Ecology by Gustav Cederlf

This book introduces political ecology to a new generation of students in a daring new way: as an interdisciplinary approach to environmental research but also as a series of lived realities and a praxis for change.

"This book is a great contribution to political ecologyThe examples are chosen from diverse places around the world, yet maintain specificity, striking a good balance between trying to capture a "global" perspective while keeping it locally grounded. It’s an interesting and captivating read and I look forward to using it in my teaching."

Alida Cantor, Assistant Professor, Portland State University Department of Geography, USA.

"This is a magnificent field guide to contemporary political ecological thought, informed by multiple scholarly and activist traditions. Written in a direct and accessible style, Discovering Political Ecology is the new indispensable text for instructors and researchers alike. It deftly weaves analytical and illustrative points to describe a rich subfield defined by its political commitments, analytical rigor, and growing set of co-conspirators. Political ecology is more important now than ever before, and this book is essential reading for all those who have felt its call to action."

Andrea Marston, Assistant Professor, Department of Geography, Rutgers University – New Brunswick, USA.

"A long-awaited foundational text offering a promising way forward for political ecology teaching, research and activism. Cederlöf and Loftus own up to the field’s Anglo (yet anti-colonial) roots while bringing forth more diverse scholarship and exhibiting the various manifestations of colonialism and environmental injustice around the globe and calls for action."

Anna Lavoie, Colorado State University, USA.

"This brilliant book is required for students and educators in the field of political ecology. It responds to the urgent need to decentre political ecology from the Anglo-American centricity and to open-up diverse roots, voices, perspectives and contexts that have contributed to its emergence and development."

Mathew Bukhi Mabele, University of Dodoma, Tanzania.

Gustav Cederlöf is an Associate Senior Lecturer in Human Ecology at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
