Despite sporadic news coverage of extreme weather events, high-level climate change diplomacy, special UN days of celebration, and popular media references to impending ecological collapse, most students are not exposed to the detailed presentation and analysis of the international relations and diplomacy of environmental policy-making.

Comprehensive and accessibly written for first-year or second-year undergraduates, the second edition of Global Ecopolitics provides students with a panoramic view of the policymakers and the structuring bodies involved in the creation of environmental policies. Detailing a considerable amount of environmental activity since its initial 2012 publication, this up-to-date second edition uses an applicable framework of systemic analysis and important case studies that push students to form their own conclusions about past efforts, present needs, and future directions.

Reviews for Global Ecopolitics: Crisis, Governance, and Justice, Second Edition

Global Ecopolitics offers a compelling expose of the environmental challenges of our time, including known and persistent problems such as air and ocean pollution, climate change, deforestation, and loss of biodiversity, as well as new complex concerns such as invasive alien species, food security, nanotechnology, and energy production. It argues convincingly that effective, permanent, and consensual solutions must be rooted in adaptive governance and effective institutions at all levels and is a must-read for students and policymakers alike. - Maria Ivanova, University of Massachusetts Boston
