"This edited book sets out the contours of feminist political ecology that have emerged from the multi-sited, cross-generational and inter/transdisciplinary dialogues held in the Wellbeing Ecology Gender cOmmunities (WEGO) network over the last four years. It sets out to show how feminist political ecology is a vibrant and engaged research process at the intersection of feminist and environmental theory and practice.
It covers topics that range from climate change and extractivism, to body politics and health, degrowth, care and community well-being. The book maps out the contours of feminist political ecology based on the WEGO network's original research and analysis as it links conversations with local communities, in social movements as well as within different academic spaces.
The book illustrates how FPE scholarship is shaped by everyday and embodied lives within damaged, dynamic and contested environments. Key to the book is how FPE can produce feminist intersectional and intergenerational plural knowledges as a political and ethical practice, recognising multiple truths, intergenerational and intersectional differ-ences. The book is made up of a series of dialogues that navigate theory and practice, individual and collective engagements at the edge of academic and activist desires to produce politically meaningful knowledge building on the insights of empirical research and feminist theory."
