Reviews

Author David Rodriguez Goyes is an attorney with a PhD in criminology and a researcher in green criminology, specializing in biopiracy. In this book, he offers a detailed overview of the emerging field of green criminology, which evaluates environmental threats and crimes such as land-grabbing, biopiracy, animal exploitation, and the damage of climate change. The book points to the impact of harmful environmental practices and Western ideas of progress that contribute to environmental damage in the Global South. Part 1 explains theory and tenets of green criminology, posits a science to end discrimination, and reveals green criminology's philosophical basis. Part 2 describes empirical and applied cases demonstrating how to end ecological discrimination in the Global South. The book concludes with a proposal for how to prevent Southern Hemisphere green criminology from losing its relevance and ideas for changing the social dynamics that produce ecological discrimination in the region. Of special note, the book incorporates insights from 20 Indigenous communities in Colombia. Distributed in North America by Turpin Distribution. -- Annotation (c)2019 * (protoview.com) *
