Byron Caminero-Santangelo

Different Shades of Green

African Literature, Environmental Justice, and Political Ecology

Buch

Engaging important discussions about social conflict, environmental change, and imperialism in Africa, Different Shades of Green points to legacies of African environmental writing, often neglected as a result of critical perspectives shaped by dominant Western conceptions of nature and environmentalism. Drawing on an interdisciplinary framework and writing by African environmental activists, Byron Caminero-Santangelo highlights how African writers have challenged unjust, ecologically destructive forms of imperial development and resource extraction.
