Global Ecologies And The Environmental Humanities: Postcolonial Approaches (Routledge Interdisciplinary Perspectives On Literature)

This volume examines current trends in scholarly thinking about the new field of the Environmental Humanities, focusing in particular on how the history of globalization and imperialism represents a special challenge to approaches to environmental issues. Essays in this collection examine the role narrative can play in drawing attention to and shaping our ideas about long-term environmental problems such as climate change, militarism, deforestation, toxicity, and agricultural resource management.
