• PART 1. PLURALISM AND DIFFERENCE: THE ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGE ; 1. Introduction: The Environmental Challenge to Pluralism ; 2. Approaches to Difference in the US Environmental Movement: Classification Schemes, Hegemonic Definitions, and Singular Motivations ; PART 2. CRITICAL PLURALISM IN THEORY ; 3. Pluralism and Difference: A Genealogy of Multiplicity ; 4. Components of a Critical Pluralism: Ethics and Processes ; PART 3. ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE: CRITICAL PLURALISM IN PRACTICE ; 5. The Politics of Networking in the Grassroots Environmental Justice Movement ; 6. Communicative Practices and Communicative Demands in the Environmental Justice Movement ; PART 4. CONCLUSION ; 7. Environmental Justice and the Prospects for a Critical Pluralism

Unlike many books in political science, Environmental Justice and the New Pluralism will be as helpful to political activists as it will be to academics. It delineates the differences among different generations of pluralist thought and relates those differences to efforts to organize the environmental movement, suggesting ways that would be both more effective and more just. This book is important because it is one of the first by a political theorist to examine the theoretical implications of the environmental justice movement carefully. Let us hope it opens doors that other political scientists will explore
