This book offers a unique perspective on one of today’s most disturbing convergences, the rise of the far right and the ongoing ecological crisis. Through case studies from around the world, the book interrogates the multifaceted ways these two trends intersect. -- .
This volume engages with the alarming convergence of far right thinking and the ecological crisis in contemporary society. Growing out of the first international conference on political ecologies of the far right, the volume gathers crucial insights from authorities in the field as well as promising early career researchers. With cases ranging from ethnographical accounts of fossil fuel populist protest, historical analysis of the evangelical support for fossil fuels to interrogations of the settler colonial identities and material conditions defended by far right actors around the world, the book provides scholars, students and activists with ways to understand and counter these developments. -- .
