SynopsisLessons in Environmental Justiceprovides an entry point to the field by bringing together the works of individuals who are creating a new and vibrant wave of environmental justice scholarship, methodology, and activism. The 18 essays in this collection explore a wide range of controversies and debates, from the U.S. and other societies. An important theme throughout the book is how vulnerable and marginalized populations--the incarcerated, undocumented workers, rural populations, racial and ethnic minorities--bear a disproportionate share of environmental risks. Each reading concludes with a suggested assignment that helps student explore the topic independently and deepen their understanding of the issues raised., This timely text has two main goals. The first is to provide an entry point to environmental justice for students who are new to the field. Editor Michael Mascarenhas has assembled a diverse group of expert contributors who discuss their research across a wide range of topics including environmental racism, fair housing, food justice, water rights, prison conditions, toxic waste sites, and the legal and regulatory agencies that enforce environmental policies. The second goal is to highlight a new and vibrant wave of environmental justice scholarship, methods, and activism. Along with established names in the field, readers will encounter the words and ideas of lesser-known figures who are engaging with vulnerable communities both to advance knowledge of environmental justice and to bring about positive social change.
