Reviews

"Demaria makes a timely and important contribution to political ecology, demonstrating that neither the political economy nor materiality can be considered as ""context"" since they are always already co-constituted. The book's rich analysis exposes how the politics around social metabolism is intrinsically linked to the struggle against exploitation, dispossession, and contamination * Maria Kaika, University of Amsterdam, author of City of flows: Modernity, nature, and the city and co-editor of Turning up the Heat: Urban Political Ecology for a Climate Emergency, with Keil, Mandler and Tzaninis *"
