Global Climate Justice-Challenged Democracy: Volume 9

A sharp, international analysis of how political and economic forces have stalled climate action and what must happen next to achieve true climate justice.

Global Climate Justice-Challenged Democracy confronts the political and economic forces that have obstructed and even reversed urgent climate action. With narratives from twelve different countries, this anthology examines the global struggle for climate justice and exposes the tensions between climate policy and social equity.

While climate change is a universal crisis, the burden of environmental harm is unequally distributed. This volume critically investigates how policy decisions impact marginalized communities, how corporate and political interests shape climate agendas, and how justice movements stand against the status quo. Addressing the failures and successes of global climate governance, Global Climate Justice is a comprehensive analysis of the barriers to meaningful change and highlights pathways toward a more just and sustainable future. A valuable reference for policymakers, activists, and anyone invested in the fight for climate justice, this book illuminates the power struggles defining our planet's future.
