Environmental Protest: Past and Present (013GALA)
30 credits, Level 6
Autumn teaching
The first Climate Emergency Declaration was made in December 2016, marking the emergence of a new wave of globally-coordinated and high profile environmental protests.
Protests over human-induced climate change represent the latest in a long line of organised protests concerned with the protection and preservation of local and international environments, and an even longer history of resistances to changes in the local environment.
You will analyse the causes, objectives, forms of organisation, methods and modes of protest, and effectiveness of a range of environmental protests over the last 300 years and over a range of spatial scales.
