-- Ian Scoones, Professor, Institute of Development Studies, University of Sussex

-- David Schlosberg, Professor of Environmental Politics and Director, Sydney Environment Institute, University of Sydney

'A splendid collective book co-produced by an impressive international group of twenty-five socio-environmental academics and activists ... focusing both on the alternatives that are born from the resistance to extractivism or pollution, and on sustainable practices such as community textile production. Building on detailed knowledge of the local protagonists and issues, this optimistic, inspiring book jumps scales to national and international dimensions.'

-- Joan Martinez-Alier, Institute of Environmental Science and Technology, Universitat Autnoma de Barcelona

'This is an indispensable book that brings together the theory and practice of environmental justice. The contributions offer different ways for the concrete materialization of the changes needed for just transformations for alternative futures and make a rich account of methods for mutual learning between social movements and academia. A valuable resource for those committed to achieving environmental justice in the 21st century.'
