Truth WarsThe Politics of Climate Change, Military Intervention and Financial Crisis

Peter Lee, RAF College Cranwell, University of Portsmouth, UK"Focusing upon the three great global political crises of our time – military intervention, the financial meltdown, and the actual 'meltdown' threatened by climate change – the author provides a probing and deeply unsettling assessment of the manner in which competing and often illusory truth-claims are fashioned by political leaders, governments, international institutions and demagogues solely in order to re-shape the world in their image, and to gain control over the lives of others." - George R. Lucas Jr., U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, USA

We live in an age of crises that are global in scale and potentially apocalyptic in severity, affecting the lives of millions – billions – of people. Peter Lee examines the struggle for truth at the heart of these crises to show how political leaders attempt to shape individual behavior, attitudes and identity.

Climate Change and Individual ResponsibilityAgency, Moral Disengagement and the Motivational Gap

Wouter Peeters, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium, Andries De Smet, Ghent University, Belgium, Lisa Diependaele, Ghent University, Belgium, Sigrid Sterckx, Ghent University, Belgium"The mysteries of motivation that have bamboozled many students of climate change are confronted head-on in this ground-breaking and valuable exploration of the psychological mechanisms of moral disengagement that underlie our mystifying inaction in the face of these growing dangers. The authors thoroughly demonstrate how deeply misleading our conventional phenomenology of moral agency is as ordinarily applied to climate change and suggest positive strategies for tackling moral disengagement while time remains."

- Henry Shue, University of Oxford, UK

This study discusses the agency and responsibility of individuals in climate change, and argues that these are underemphasized, enabling individuals to maintain their consumptive lifestyles without having to accept moral responsibility for their luxury emissions.

SUSTAINABILITY AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Science and SustainabilityLearning from Indigenous Wisdom

Joy Hendry, Oxford Brookes University, UK"Science and Sustainability offers hope for the planet. Hendry argues that the traditions of the world's indigeneous peoples can help us to tackle the many global problems that face us and help to build a sustainable world." - David Peat, Director of the Pari Center for New Learning, Italy and author of Blackfoot Physics

Indigenous peoples have passed down vital knowledge for generations from which local plants help cure common ailments, to which parts of the land are unsuitable for buildings because of earthquakes. Here, Hendry examines science through these indigenous roots, problematizing the idea that Western science is

the only type that deserves that name.

URBAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES

Material Participation: Technology, the Environment and Everyday Publics2nd edition

Noortje Marres, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK"A rich and stimulating book.'' - Journal of Cultural Economy"Marres' attention to the material conditions of political participation is not a return to materialism but a deep redefinition of each of those terms: why does politics matter and what does it mean to be involved into politics? Before her a pragmatist view of politics and publics remained abstract, without a clear method to follow the objects, pragmata, that give relevance to the creation of the public. Marres' work deeply renews what it is for the study of politics and participation to take material conditions seriously." - Bruno Latour, Sciences Po, Paris, France

This book develops a fresh perspective on everyday forms of engagement, one that foregrounds the role of objects, technologies and settings in democracy. Examining a range of devices, from smart meters to eco-homes, the book sets out new concepts and methods for analyzing the relations between participation, innovation and the environment.

May, University of Oregon, USA"Fascinating and thought-provoking." - Green Letters: Studies in Ecocriticism "[A] refreshing addition to Palgrave Macmillan's What Is Theatre? series ... The real strength of this edited collection is Arons and May's guiding vision of 'the fierce, inexorable interconnectivity between nature and human culture' ... these essays successfully interweave performance and story to show us why and how our telling matters." - ISLE "Whereas ecocriticism has emerged from the discipline of literary criticism as a rich subfield, terms

such as 'ecodramaturgy' and 'ecodirecting' have not yet carved out a place in the vernacular of theatre and performance studies. This anthology seeks to do this." - The Drama Review

This ground-breaking collection focuses on how theatre, dance, and other forms of performance are helping to transform our ecological values. Top scholars explore how familiar and new works of performance can help us recognize our reciprocal relationship with the natural world and how it helps us understand the way we are connected to the land.

POLLUTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL THREATS

Invisible Crimes and Social HarmsEdited by Pamela Davies, Peter Francis, Tanya Wyatt, all at Northumbria University, UK"The idea that, if we are to properly understand crime, we have to be prepared to look well beyond official statutes, penal codes and conventional definitions belongs to what is perhaps the most stimulating tradition in criminological analysis. Edwin Sutherland, conflict theorists and abolitionists are outstanding representatives of this tradition, which finds energetic and innovative following in this remarkable collection. A wide range of conducts is addressed, from sexual crimes to environmental damage, from elder abuse to bio-piracy, from health and safety violations to fraud: all invisible crimes causing very visible social harm." - Vincenzo

Ruggiero, Middlesex University, UK

This unique collection explores the continuing invisibility of much crime and victimization, and the lack of adequate responses to them. Shaping the lens through which criminology and victimology is approached in the twenty-first century, the volume examines major issues including (in)justice, risks, rights, regulation and enforcement.

Green Innovation and Future TechnologyEngaging Regional SMEs in the Green Economy

Edited by Felicity Kelliher, Leana Reinl, both at Waterford Institute of Technology, Ireland"An essential handbook for all interested in the whys and wherefores of establishing partnerships in building a green economy. This impressive tome is both thought-provoking and practical... this handbook offers a unique, comprehensive guide which I expect will be valuable also in other parts of Europe and world-wide." - Roger Seddon, Department for the Economy and Transport, Welsh Government

This text explores green innovation and future technology skill development within regional small to medium sized enterprises. Notwithstanding the goals

of a greener Europe, there has been little debate as to how the skills required to fulfil the goals of sustainable development can be imparted within regions and within rural business communities.

Ecocriticism and ShakespeareReading Ecophobia

Simon C. Estok, Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea"A milestone work." - Early Modern Literary Studies "A more-than-welcome contribution to Shakespeare scholarship, to ecocriticism, and to critical theory." -Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and the Environment

Combining close readings with theoretical sophistication, this book is a path-breaking addition to both Shakespearean scholarship and the burgeoning field of ecocriticism. Refreshingly, Estok takes readers back to the radical possibilities ecocriticism began with to give new insight into a dramatist who had a lot to say about the natural world.

Contents: 1. Doing Ecocriticism with Shakespeare * 2. Dramatizing Environmental Fear: King Lear‘s Unpredictable Natural Spaces and Domestic Places * 3. Coriolanus and Ecocriticism: A Study in Confluent Theorizing * 4. Pushing the Limits of Ecocriticism: Environment and Social Resistance in 2 Henry VI and 2 Henry IV * 5.

The Environmental Imaginary in Brazilian Poetry and Art

Malcolm K. McNee, Smith College, USA"In this smart interdisciplinary treatment of ecopoetics, Malcolm McNee's The Environmental Imaginary in Brazilian Poetry and Art uses ecocritical theory to build bridges between the most recent developments in Environmental Humanities and the cultural and bioregional contexts of Brazil as well as between the literary and visual arts... It will be of great value to ecocritics and, no doubt, to the budding conversation in Brazil about literature and the environment." - George Handley, Brigham Young University, USA

This study contributes to ongoing discussions on the connections between the environmental imaginary

and issues of identity, place and nation. Utilizing a delimited ecocritical approach, McNee puts Brazilian culture, through the work of contemporary poets and visual artists, into a broader, transnational dialogue.

Contents: Introduction: Land that Seemed to Us Quite Vast * 1. Ecopoetry and Earth Art: Theoretical Orientations and Brazilian Inflections * 2. Manoel de Barros and Astrid Cabral: Between Backyard Swamps and the Cosmos * 3. Sérgio Medeiros and Josely Vianna Baptista: Meta-Landscape and the (Re)Turn of the Native * 4.

Thornber, Harvard University, USA

Translated from Japanese, this study exposes English-language scholars to the complexities of the relationship between food, culture, the environment, and literature in Japan. Yuki explores the systems of value surrounding food as expressed in four popular

Japanese female writers: Ishimure Michiko, Taguchi Randy, Morisaki Kazue, and Nashiki Kaho.

PALGRAVE STUDIES IN MEDIA AND ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNICATION SERIES

Edited by Anders Hansen, University of Leicester, UK, Stephen Depoe, University of Cincinnati, USA

Media, Environment and the Network SocietyAlison G. Anderson, University of Plymouth, UK"Media, Environment and the Network Society is a much-needed rethinking by one of the field's leading scholars of many of our assumptions about media and environmental activism. Anderson's conceptually-smart analysis takes us well beyond activists' quest for access or visibility to the rapidly changing and complex terrain of global media politics — including digital media — in a networked world." - Robert Cox, Professor Emeritus, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA

The news media has become a key arena for staging environmental conflicts. Through a range of illuminating examples ranging from climate change to

oil spills, Media, Environment and the Network Society provides a timely and far-reaching analysis of the media politics of contemporary environmental debates.

Contents: Acknowledgements * 1. Introduction * 2. Environmental Risks, Protest and the Network Society * 3. News Agendas, Framing Contests and Power * 4. The Climate Change Controversy * 5. Oils Spills and Crisis Communication * 6. Emerging Technologies * 7. Future Directions * Bibliography

Investigative Journalism, Environmental Problems and Modernisation in China

Jingrong Tong, University of Leicester, UK"An important and subtle account of one of the major paradoxes of our times: how can an authoritarian government, some of the world's worst polluters and environmental problems, and a strong tradition of environmental investigative journalism all exist within one nation? Jingrong Tong begins with an ode to lost landscapes, before revealing how an informed citizenry can invoke government accountability and intervention even at the most unlikely of times." - Libby Lester, University of Tasmania, Australia

This book examines how the news media in general, and investigative journalism in particular, interprets

environmental problems and how those interpretations contribute to the shaping of a discourse of risk that can compete against the omnipresent and hegemonic discourse of modernisation in Chinese society.

Contents: Introduction * 1. Modernisation, Environmental Problems and Chinese Society * 2. Twenty-years of Environmental Investigative Reporting: Agendas, Social Interests and Voices * 3. The Discourse of Risk: Environmental Problems and Environmentalism in Chinese Press Investigative Reports * 4. Environmental Investigative Journalists and their Work * 5. Offline Investigative Journalism and Online Environmental Crusades * 6. Hegemony and Counter-Hegemony: Investigative Journalism between Modernisation and Environmental Problems * Bibliography
