Book Synopsis Everyday Environmentalism by : Alex Loftus
Download or read book Everyday Environmentalism written by Alex Loftus. This book was released on 2012. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyday Envirnomentalism develops a conversation between marxist theories of everyday life and recent work in urban political ecology, arguing for a philosophy of praxis in relation to the politics of urban environments. Grounding its theoretical debate in empirical studies of struggles to obtain water in the informal settlements of Durban, South Africa, as well as in the creative acts of insurgent art activists in London, Alex Loftus builds on the work of key marxist thinkers to refine "environmental politics". A marxist philosophy of praxis that world-changing ideas emerge from the acts of everyday people undergirds the book.

Book Synopsis Engaging the Everyday by : John M. Meyer
Download or read book Engaging the Everyday written by John M. Meyer. This book was released on 2015-03-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Meyer pioneers a uniquely political approach to environmental social criticism that follows from a startling central propostion: that it is not outright oppression and denialism that are the most significant impediments but what he aptly terms the 'resonance dilemma.' This is the failure of climate and environmental challenges - however important we may grant that they are - to strike us as integral everyday concerns. This lively, eloquent, accessible volume models the very style of social criticism that it calls for in response to this dilemma: a 'resonant' environmental criticism that works on (rather than against) everyday practices." Lisa Disch, Department of Political Science, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, author of Hannah Arendt and the Limits of Philosophy.
