More DescriptionThis value pack contains Politics of the Earth Second Edition and Debating the Earth.The Politics of the Earth provides an excellent and accessible introduction to thinking about the environment by looking at the way people use language on environmental issues. John Dryzek analyses the various approaches which have dominated environmental issues over the last three decades and which are likely to be influential in the future. These perspectives range from faith in unlimited economic growth to radical green politics. The history, interplay, and impact of these perspectives are analysed and assessed, concluding with a plea for ecological democracy.Debating the Earth brings together over forty essential readings which illustrate the diversity of political responses to environmental issues. They are organised in a way that emphasises the differences and debates across the various schools of thought on environmental affairs. The second edition includes a new section on ‘The Global South and Indigenous Perspectives' and twenty-five extracts are new to this edition.For more information on each of these titles, including the table of contents please see their individual pages: Politics of the Earth Debating the Earth
