"""Sharon Krause has contributed valuably to political theory and, specifically, environmental domination and governance research . . . [Eco-Emancipation] compels readers to engage with the dignity and power of nonhuman parts of nature that are, themselves, political actors.""---Cameron Fioret, Political Science Quarterly ""Re-imagining concepts such as respect, responsibility, and emancipation in the context of our relationships with our fellow Earth others promises a more just future for all, whether human or otherwise. This is a future in which we humans have committed to reigning in our rapacious treatment of the natural world through institutional measures that are—at least in theory—impervious to the lesser angels of our individual natures. As Krause convincingly argues, however, this is not a future of deprivation. By ensuring that all of Earth’s inhabitants are as free as possible to pursue life on their own terms, we ensure that we, too, are free to flourish.""---Serrin Rutledge-Prior, Res Publica"
