Description: Toxic and Intoxicating Oil : Discovery, Resistance, and Justice in Aotearoa New Zealand, Paperback by Widener, Patricia, ISBN 1978805039, ISBN-13 9781978805033, Brand New, Free shipping in the US In this ethnographic study, author Patricia Widener (sociology, Florida Atlantic University) relies on fieldwork conducted in 2013 and 2014 to provide a social analysis of both oil advocacy and oil resistance in New Zealand. Widener offers a critique of the dominant oil paradigm and outlines a more socially and ecologically just critical oil paradigm for New Zealand in the era of oil disasters and climate change. The study draws on the work of David Pellow’s critical environmental justice studies and David Hess’s energy democracy. It also integrates theoretical approaches of direct action and political economy, as well as Maori history and disputes over Maori lands and resources.
