University Of Arizona Press Life and Death Matters

Authors in this this bold new edition of Life and Death Matters reassess the state of scholarship and grassroots activism in a new century when social and environmental systems are being reconceptualised within post-9/11 security and biosecurity frameworks, when global warming and resource scarcity are not fears but realities, when global power and politics are being realigned, and when ecocide, ethnocide, and genocide are daily tragedies. It will be a widely used textbook and essential reading for students, scholars, and policy makers.
