Reviews
"Globalization won't just 'go away' but it just can't 'go on', either. To become literate enough to confront the environmental contradictions that follow from this disturbing reality means understanding all sides of a thorny discussion. Newell and Roberts provide an incredible resource to do just that." Paul Robbins, Director, Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies "The perfect primer to get the reader up to speed and then speeding ahead. An essential guide for scholars and policy-makers looking to confront the challenge of making our increasingly global world a green one." Kevin P. Gallagher, Boston University "This collection, expertly put together by the editors, provides an unrivalled introduction to the debate on how economic globalization is implicated in the global environmental crisis, and what we can do about it. It contains classic texts and recent publications that shed a critical light on this vitally important topic." Robert Falkner, London School of Economics and Political Science "This valuable and well-chosen selection of the most important texts covers the rich variety of viewpoints, insights, debates, arguments, and outlooks on how globalization affects and/or enhances environmental quality." Arthur P.J. Mol, Wageningen University, The Netherlands "The Globalization and Environment Reader offers a wealth of perspectives on the limits and possibilities of securing an increasingly uncertain future. This book showcases a strong line-up of scholars bringing global and green lenses to some of the most critical questions of our time." Philip McMichael, Cornell University
