This Handbook gathers together state-of-the-art theoretical reflection and empirical research by a group of leading international scholars working in the interdisciplinary field of gender and environment.
The Routledge Handbook of Gender and Environment gathers together state-of-the-art theoretical reflections and empirical research from leading researchers and practitioners working in this transdisciplinary and transnational academic field. Over the course of the book, these contributors provide critical analyses of the gender dimensions of a wide range of timely and challenging topics, from sustainable development and climate change politics, to queer ecology and interspecies ethics in the so-called Anthropocene.

Presenting a comprehensive overview of the development of the field from early political critiques of the male domination of women and nature in the 1980s to the sophisticated intersectional and inclusive analyses of the present, the volume is divided into four parts:






Part I: Foundations



Part II: Approaches



Part III: Politics, policy and practice



Part IV: Futures.

Comprising chapters written by forty contributors with different perspectives and working in a wide range of research contexts around the world, this Handbook will serve as a vital resource for scholars, students, and practitioners in environmental studies, gender studies, human geography, and the environmental humanities and social sciences more broadly.

Sherilyn MacGregor is Reader in Environmental Politics at the University of Manchester, UK. She has been teaching Environmental Politics and Gender and Environment at undergraduate and postgraduate levels for 15 years and has been an editor and editorial board board member of Environmental Politics since 2007.
