Beschrijving
Militarizing the Environment: Climate Change and the Security State
offers an illuminating, perturbing account of the greening of military discourse and strategy amidst an era of advancing climate change. Robert P. Marzec brilliantly details the neoliberal assault-at once militaristic, economic and discursive-on the commons and its most vulnerable inhabitants. His book is essential reading for anyone committed to understanding the new imperialism and its cynical, sinister appropriation of critical environmental ideas like resilience, adaptation, and sustainability.

Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor
