Description
Philosophy of Environmental Justice: An Interdisciplinary Approach delves into environmental ethics and justice, bridging human systems and natural ecosystems. At its core is an innovative philosophy of Dual Sustainability Theory (DST), which fosters ecological integrity and human progress through mutual sustainability and dynamic adaptability. DST redefines sustainability as a continuous, iterative process, balancing environmental preservation with technological and societal development. Its principles - regenerative design, resource recycling, and equitable resource distribution - advocate for a harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature.
The book explores the intersection of environmental justice with race, gender, and class inequalities, while emphasizing community involvement, inclusive policymaking, and the dual conservation of biodiversity and cultural diversity. Featuring real-world case studies, it demonstrates how DST can effectively address pressing global issues, from climate change to social inequality.
Philosophy of Environmental Justice serves as both a scholarly resource and a call to action, appealing to academics, policymakers, activists, and anyone striving for a sustainable and equitable future where humanity and nature flourish together.
Key audiences includes academics, scholars, and students in the fields of environmental philosophy, ethics, and social justice, as well as policymakers, professionals working in environmental and social policy, environmental activists, researchers, and community organizers.
