Contents:
Breaking boundaries. Environmentalism bounded : discourse and action -- Livable regions and cleaner production : linking environmental justice and pollution prevention. Exploring pathways. Dry cleaning's dilemma and opportunity : overcoming chemical dependencies and creating a community of interests -- Janitors and justice : industry restructuring, chemical exposures, and redefining work -- Global, local, and food insecure : the restructuring of the food system -- The politics of food : agendas and movements for change -- Pathways to change : a conclusion.
Review: "In Environmentalism Unbound, Robert Gottlieb proposes a new strategy for social and environmental change that involves reframing and linking the movements for environmental justice and pollution prevention. According to Gottlieb, the environmental movement's narrow conception of environment has isolated it from vital issues of everyday life, such as workplace safety, healthy communities, and food security, that are often viewed separately as industrial, community, or agricultural concerns. This fragmented approach prevents an awareness of how these issues are also environmental issues."--Jacket.
