Climate Justice

This book provides an analytical introduction to the complex challenge of climate change and the equally multi-faceted movement for climate justice. Its approach is empirically and conceptually rich, while remaining both accessible and engaging. Each chapter examines the topic through a different thematic lens, drawing on contemporary and landmark scholarship, advocacy, and activism across relevant disciplines and campaigns. These distinct angles build toward a comprehensive perspective that will equip readers to ably and critically engage in era-defining policy, political, governance, and scholarly debates. Brandon Derman is Associate Professor in Environmental Studies at the University of Illinois Springfield. His work has appeared in the Annual Review of Law and Social Science, Climate Policy, Political Geography, the South African Journal on Human Rights, and in edited volumes on climate change, justice, and global governance. His previous book is Struggles for Climate Justice: Uneven Geographies and the Politics of Connection.
