About the Book

As the twenty-first century faces a crisis of democracy and sustainability, this book brings women academics and alternative globalisation activists into conversation. Through studies of global neoliberalism, ecological debt, climate change, and the ongoing devaluation of reproductive and subsistence labour, these uncompromising essays by women thinkers expose the limits of current scholarship in political economy, ecological economics, and sustainability science.

About the Author :
Ariel Salleh is an author who has made big waves in ecopolitics and environmental ethics. She is currently a researcher in Political Economy at the University of Sydney and a co-editor of the journal Capitalism Nature Socialism and the author of Eco-Sufficiency and Global Justice (Pluto, 2009).

Review :
'The Eco-Sufficiency anthology based on the diversity and pluralism of perspectives inspired by ecofeminism is a must read for anyone searching for alternatives' 'By far and away the best collection of ecological feminist writing I have found' 'People are much more than the atomised units of neoclassical and environmental economics. Economic and ecological practices conducted by women and other marginalised groupings must be recognised as a source of new theoretical understandings, critical for social and environmental justice to be achieved' 'These new and incisive perspectives put forth a transformative agenda for global justice. And in doing so, the collection draws all of us -- activists and academics alike -- closer to a common political denominator in the search for a true alternative to globalisation'
