A wide-ranging collection of essays, this book examines a crucial yet understudied link between environmental campaigns and media discourse and activism. With several case studies from India, it explores the geo-politics of environmental discourse by examining situations in countries which are now joining the emerging economies and slowly shifting their political alliances.
'A delight to find a volume that blurs disciplinary boundaries, that dares to ask how discourses about development, environment and politics work together . . . focusing centrally on cases from the global South . . . A fascinating set of readings that will help to define a new terrain of research and activism.' - Annabelle Sreberny, Centre for Media and Film Studies, SOAS, University of London
