The threat of social-environmental destruction is a fundamental challenge for those who are interested in creating and maintaining liveable worlds. This volume will bring together international scholars in science and technology studies, environmental studies, ecological humanities, art and design, geography and other social sciences to explore practices of repairing damaged and precarious ecologies through various societal, environmental and material involvements across different locations and geographies. Contributions will offer novel theoretical perspectives and empirical insights on the reparative and insurgent capacity of mending ecologies to craft relations of care and sustenance of human and nonhuman communities.

The volume will be divided into several sections that are organized around a series of concepts that denote countervailing forces, processes and movements of damaging and repairing. Each section will consist of two or three contributions that offer experimental explorations of what ecological reparation means, and each section will begin with a short note that briefly describes the key concepts and issues that will be explored within.

Reviews for Ecological Reparation: Repair, Remediation and Resurgence in Social and Environmental Conflict

“This is an inspiring call for creative and careful experimentation to reimagine and recraft possibilities for shared life in difficult times.” Thom van Dooren, University of Sydney ""As fossil capitalism ravages the planet, foregrounding resistant acts of ecological reparation is critical in imagining and realizing system change – to which this book contributes with global reach and interdisciplinary scope."" T.J. Demos, University of California, Santa Cruz ""… an expansive and compelling collection, by world-leading and emergent scholars, of the critical importance of ecology and relationality in both theorizing reparative justice and detailing practices of hopeful care."" Mark Jackson, University of Bristol
