Description: FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Environmental Politics and Policy in Aotearoa New Zealand by Maria Bargh, Julie L. MacArthur An undergraduate textbook situating environmental politics and policy in the unique institutional, cultural and resource context of Aotearoa. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Environmental Politics and Policy in Aotearoa New Zealand is a comprehensive introduction to confronting some of todays most urgent challenges. Global warming, threats to biodiversity, contamination of waterways and other environmental issues confront todays citizens with critical challenges that are fundamentally political. Power, authority and state action enable current practices - and through politics and policy that power can be harnessed to create a more ecologically sustainable planet. In this book, leading scholars from around Aotearoa introduce students to environmental politics and policy based in this countrys unique institutional, cultural and resource context. The text focuses on the key importance of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, the characteristics of the natural environment in Aotearoa and the role of gender dynamics in the distribution of power, before turning to how this unique setting informs and is, in turn, informed by the global context of environmental politics. The authors take a systemic view of environmental politics and governance in New Zealand, addressing the philosophical and ideational debates about who and what matters (both human and non-human), the political institutions that embed and enact these ideas, and how these ideas then manifest in particular arenas - from climate and freshwater to energy and farming. Practical tips - how to make a submission, organise a protest, write a policy brief or a press release - are woven throughout.
