Routledge Environmental Anthropology
About the Book Series
Environmental Anthropology explores historic and present human-environment interactions, highlighting the link between human-caused environmental problems such as climate change, species extinction, and pollution, with the complex cultural, political, and economic systems that have created them. This series aims to contribute to the growing subfield by providing a comprehensive survey of contemporary topics in environmental anthropology, including food procurement, ethnobiology, spiritual ecology, resilience, nonhuman rights, architectural anthropology, industrialism, and education.
The Routledge Environmental Anthropology series welcomes submissions that combine strong academic theory with practical applications, and as such is relevant to a global readership of students, researchers, policy-makers, practitioners, and activists.
