Dear colleagues,

I am happy to point you towards a special issue on environmental justice that a former colleague and associate researcher of ours, Jonas Hein, has guest-edited with the time-honoured geographer's journal "Die Erde". It includes a number of interesting empirical case studies from around the globe.

Please see below for further details, including open access link.

Best, Steffen

Dear colleagues,
We are very happy and proud to inform you that the special issue “Narratives and practices of environmental justice” compiling the results of last year’s Enjust workshop has just been published in the open access journal “DIE ERDE – Journal of the Geographical Society of Berlin”. The articles are available online: https://www.die-erde.org/index.php/die-erde/issue/view/45
The special issue includes a diverse set of empirical and conceptual contributions on environmental justice. The articles advance new conceptual ideas (e.g. on participation, epistemic justice, socioecological justice, Environmental Justice Incommensurabilities Framework) and provide very interesting insights into ongoing struggles for environmental justice and into the role that narratives play in such struggles. Empirically, the contributions range from resistance against hydropower initiatives (Turkey and Brazil), to movements against coal (Egypt) and bio-ethanol production (Argentina) to spatial flood risk management (Austria and Netherlands) and urban mobility (Mexico).
We very much welcome any type of feedback, and we hope this special issue will provide new insights into this ongoing debate.
Best wishes from Kiel,
Florian and Jonas
