Emeritus Professor Kuntala Lahiri-Dutt, AO, is at the Resources, Environment and Development (RE&D) Program at the Crawford School of Public Policy, Australian National University. Her research and publications have contributed to the social and ecological aspects of resources as they relate to people's livelihoods in South and Southeast Asian countries, in particular, to both large industrial and informal or artisanal small-scale mines and quarries, rivers and water, and the feminization of agriculture in rural communities. Both international and grassroots-level development organizations have used her work. The World Bank's Just Transition Centre published her monograph Just Transition for All: A Feminist Approach for the Coal Sector, and the United Nations Environment Program's Extractive Industries Governance Group sought her contributions to their report on Mineral Resource Governance in the 21st Century.Patrik Oskarsson is an established researcher focusing on resource politics, especially over India's extractive industries, land use, and environmental consultations. His primary theoretical focus is the political ecology of resource conflicts using bottom-up approaches. He has also worked and taught in a wide range of countries, and his research and teaching engage with resource-related and ecological challenges in developing countries, as well as social science methods.

• Chapter 1: Testimonies and Justice in Coal Transitions Chapter 2: Lifeworlds of Coal-Side Communities Chapter 3: Is there a Post-Coal Future? Chapter 4: Multiple Coal Transitions Chapter 5: Historical Injustices in Coal Regions Chapter 6: Reconciling Past Injustices for a Just and Decarbonized Future

This book is about more than giving voice to those who would ordinarily be unheard in the coal transition. A fieldwork-based study over decades, the book chooses to be clinical in parts, but at the same time cannot help being poignant in many places. It will be a definitive work for those interested in narratives beyond those formally recorded or as per norms of formal compensation, instead focusing on the most marginalized and vulnerable. As Lahiri-Dutt and Oskarsson point out, development cannot be separated from justice, for which we need to think of 'everyday justice' instead of conventional models of justice.
