Environmental activists and academics alike are realizing that a sustainable societymust be a just one. Environmental degradation is almost always linked to questions of human equalityand quality of life. Throughout the world, those segments of the population that have the leastpolitical power and are the most marginalized are selectively victimized by environmentalcrises.Just Sustainabilities argues that social and environmental justice within and between nationsshould be an integral part of the policies and agreements that promote sustainable development. Thebook addresses many aspects of the links between environmental quality and human equality andbetween sustainability and environmental justice more generally. The topics discussed includeanthropocentrism; biotechnology; bioprospecting; biocultural assimilation; deep and radical ecology;ecological debt; ecological democracy; ecological footprints; ecological modernization; feminism andgender; globalization; participatory research; place, identity, and legal rights; precaution; risksociety; selective victimization; and valuation.
