Earth Ethics from the Grassroots Author(s): George Zachariah Format: Paperback Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom Imprint: Equinox Publishing Ltd ISBN-13: 9781845536893, 978-1845536893 Synopsis The victims of environmental destruction are often sidelined in eco-theology and environmental discourse. Movements for ecological justice fail to take into account the voice of those at the grassroots. 'Alternatives Unincorporated' presents an environmental ethics that begins with those on the margins. Using the key example of the Narmada Dam in India and the popular resistance movement which built up against the project, the book examines the collective action of subaltern communities in caring for their local environment. The book frames these movements as theological texts that inform a life-affirming earth ethics. The aim of the book is to challenge prevailing social and ecological dynamics and to affirm the interconnectedness of social justice and environmental action.
