Dispossession and the Environment: Rhetoric and Inequality in Papua New Guinea
ISBN: 9780231178792 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When journalists, developers, surf tourists, and conservation NGOs cast Papua New Guineans as living in a prior nature and prior culture, they devalue their knowledge and practice, facilitating their dispossession. Paige West's searing study reveals how a range of actors produce and reinforce inequalities in today's globalized world. She shows how racist rhetorics of representation underlie all uneven patterns of development and seeks a more robust understanding of the ideological work that capital requires for constant regeneration.

Virtualism, Governance and Practice: Vision and Execution in Environmental Conservation
ISBN: 9780857458124 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many people investigating the operation of large-scale environmentalist organizations see signs of power, knowledge and governance in their policies and projects. This collection indicates that such an analysis appears to be justified from one perspective, but not from another. The chapters in this collection show that the critics, concerned with the power of these organizations to impose their policies in different parts of the world, appear justified when we look at environmentalist visions and at organizational policies and programs. However, they are much less justified when we look at...

Environment and Society - Volume 5: Nature and Knowledge
ISBN: 9781782384731 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume interrogates the interplay of knowledge, nature, and value. Emphasizing the relationship between power and knowledge in the production of environmental facts and values, the authors urge us to pursue diverse and often marginalized forms of knowledge as a necessary first step toward a more egalitarian praxis of environmental science. Debates over natures value tend to pit instrumentalist valuations of nature against intrinsic values, or ethically rich "cultural" values versus ethically empty economic values. The opening contributions to this volume explore how knowledge is produced...

Environment and Society - Volume 4: Human-Animal Relations
ISBN: 9780857452146 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The concept of the animal has long offered the ultimate Other against which to define the boundaries of the human. However, this binary is just one of the many ways humans and animals shape one another's existences and experiences of the world. Today, human-animal scholars are tasked with describing a world in which humans do not automatically take precedence over other beings. Whether ethnographic, ecological, or philosophical, the topics addressed in this volume bring into focus a web of relations transversing species lines in conversations across the disciplines. Both constructively and...
